Itinerary

Day 1:

new effective school traditions

Every school has traditions. In many cases they are unconscious inherited activities–they may require some effort but they occur almost automatically. Some are healthy, some banal, some are destructive. 
The goal of school traditions is to build a community among students and staff but rarely do the effects of these moments seize at the completion of the event. Many adults can still distinctly remember at least one school tradition from their K12 years if not more. But, when your school tradition is something unique to your school, it becomes a game changer. When all stakeholders are involved in a vibrant, creative, energetic, supportive and loving environment, not only will the school flourish, but it becomes everyone’s happiest place. 

The Ultimate Principal Character For This Generation

Principals vary in strategy, temperament, and leadership style, but the great ones have common characteristics which we will be going over with one of the best school principals in London. Under the leadership of a great principal, teachers thrive, students engage with core content and achieve global success and school administrative functions run smoothly. A school principal is a huge signal generator to the spirit & success of the entire school. The school principal as a leader and educator should be a good model to all teachers and learners in the school . 

Day 2

Data Analytics: The secret of successful schools’ smart decisions

With education today being very much a results-based business, it is in schools and universities’ best interests to pay attention to the power of data analytics in order to get the most value from data and drive business forward. If educational institutions are to have the best possible chance of stimulating growth, they must turn to data analytics.  Detecting ‘warning signs’ and providing guidance for students 

Design Thinking mindset: The process to solving challenges

A growing number of schools around the world are using design thinking to solve authentic challenges and create more effective solutions faster.
