The value of 暗夜成人视频 Leader Training for academy trusts听
Klara and Rachel are both National Lead Practitioners for 暗夜成人视频 Education at Ormiston Academies Trust听(OAT). In this blog post with Adam, a 暗夜成人视频 Leader at Ormiston Bushfield Academy, they听reflect听on听the value of the听fully听funded听暗夜成人视频听Leader training.听
Why should trusts provide 暗夜成人视频 Leader Training?听
The unique role of a 暗夜成人视频 Leader is a fantastic opportunity to have an impact on the lives of young people. In 2018, Sir John Holman articulated that 鈥榗areer guidance is one of the keys to social mobility,鈥 so we need passionate and driven individuals to lead a careers programme that makes a real difference for our pupils - particularly those from disadvantaged backgrounds.听听听
Yet, the size of the role, and the influence that is needed to perform it well, can be underestimated by schools, and can sometimes be given to colleagues with little experience or any training.听听听
High-quality careers training is vital for our 暗夜成人视频 Leaders; they need to fully understand the complexities of the role and why it is so important. At OAT we want our 暗夜成人视频 Leaders to have training to feel empowered and confident to perform their roles well.听
Here are some quotes from 暗夜成人视频 Leaders who have completed the bursary funded offer from CEC:听
"Completing the Post Graduate Award in 暗夜成人视频 Leadership was empowering, informative and helped give direction to the careers program at my academy. Being new to post, I found the conference to be particularly insightful- the seminars and recommended reading helped me to understand the history of CEIAG in the UK and contextualise my agency as a听careers听leader in driving change.听听
In addition to informing the academy development plan, having the opportunity to inspect how CEIAG was delivered and researching听leadership theories, empowered me to become an informed, knowledgeable, and active leader within the school."听听
- Adam Tan,听暗夜成人视频 Lead, STEM Lead and Teacher of Science,听Ormiston Bushfield Academy听
鈥淐ompleting the accredited L7 PGA in听暗夜成人视频 Leadership allowed me to fully understand the role of the听暗夜成人视频 Leader and gain new insights and ideas to support improved provision. The qualification improved my knowledge, skills and understanding of leadership, management, co-ordination and networking, and has given me the tools I need to perform this role successfully and effect change.听听
The course allowed me to read around the subject of career theory, which gave me confidence in revising the design of the career programme in school and make the necessary improvements to provision to meet the Gatsby听Benchmarks. It also provided a reminder of policies and frameworks to support practice.听
I was able to network and collaborate with other 暗夜成人视频 Leaders and share best practice and ideas. The course made me reflect on how exciting this role is, as it impacts on every student, getting them ready for their future 鈥榳orld of work鈥. It has helped raise the profile of careers and ensure the importance of a 鈥榳hole school鈥 approach is recognised. Since completing the course, I have been able to help gain the Quality in 暗夜成人视频 Standards at my school and raise the Gatsby听Benchmarks even further. I have also been able to offer support to other academies within the听trust to gain their听QiCS听as well.听听
The funded 暗夜成人视频 Leader听training that the CEC provides is invaluable, interesting and inspiring.鈥澨

As听national听lead听practitioners, we must be confident that any CPD we recommend is high quality, professional and robust training.听 We are very grateful to the CEC for supporting our听暗夜成人视频听Leaders with their challenging role; ultimately one that benefits young people听and enables them to听plan well for their futures.听
