Aspiring Heads development programme 2024/25

OCC are delighted to be offering an Aspiring Headteacher Development programme for our third year running in partnership with Kim Brosnan and her team at Coaching Transformations. This is a brilliant opportunity to prepare our Aspiring Heads for headship and/or for the process of applying for their first headship. 

It is open to any leader who is looking to apply for a HT role within the next 2 years. The cost for the programme will be £400 per delegate and there is a max. of 12 participants.

The programme will encourage Aspiring Heads to think about the step up to Headship with regard to:

• Defining vision and values
• Coaching skills and giving feedback
• Being the leader and being responsible for the strategy of a school
• Writing an effective application 
• Being successful at interview - presentation skills and interview preparation

For full details see the attached document (pdf, 214kb). 

Please share this with any Deputy Headteachers, Assistant Headteacher or Senior Leaders who may be considering Headship in the future.

To apply for the programme delegates should submit a short summary as to why they would like to apply and what they would hope to gain from the programme (in no more than 300 words) by Monday 8th July to kim.brosnan@coachingtransformations.co.uk (copying in Mark Smith mark.smith2@oxfordshire.gov.uk)
