This one day CPD event for new and aspiring senior leaders has been formulated by successful and experienced senior leaders from all sectors. It will provide sound foundations, so delegates return to their school refreshed and equipped to develop their vision or plan their pathway to headship, as well as prioritise the daily demands of their new role. Attendees will enjoy hearing insights from practitioners and other experts, gain a picture of the changing educational landscape and consider ways to sustain personal resilience throughout their career. There will be opportunities to network with other new school leaders and members of the NAHT team.

Keynote speakers include:
• Dr Andy Cope, the Art of Brilliance
• Simon Smith, Head teacher, East Whitby Academy
• Rae Snape, Head teacher, The Spinny Primary School
• Paul Whiteman, NAHT General Secretary.
