A NEW & UNIQUE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT & LEARNING OPPORTUNITY

Reflecting on the past 2 years we are still in awe and full of admiration for the way in which everyone in our sector approached the pandemic with calmness, expertise, resilience and unwavering commitment to students and families in the darkest and most challenging of times. The way in which our EfL / LearningShared community came together to share, collaborate and support each other has been inspiring.

We have been overwhelmed by the positive feedback and engagement with the podcast series and accompanying panel discussions with LearningShared growing organically and almost taking on a life of its own. Conversations with many schools and colleagues over the past 12 months have prompted our thinking as to how we might further develop the LearningShared offer. The educational landscape as always continues to change at a significant pace. The dissolution of almost all Specialist Teaching Schools and the potential loss of expertise across the system is something that is causing particular concern to many of our colleagues.

It is against this backdrop that we have been exploring the potential of creating a LearningShared CPLD offer that draws on the wealth of knowledge, expertise and most importantly connectivity across our community.

Following consultation with 100s of colleagues across the community we are excited to announce the launch in May 2022 of a brand new professional development and learning programme…

 

LearningShared: A Responsive Programme of CPLD

The programme has been designed by and is led and delivered by nationally recognised practitioners and experts in our field including Prof. Barry Carpenter CBE, Diane Rochford OBE (Chair of Rochford Review, Ofsted Inspector, Former Headteacher), Vijita Patel NLE (Principal, Swiss Cottage School DRC) and Alistair Crawford (St Martins / St Andrews School, Whole School SEND, Oak National Academy), with contributions from Dr Tina Rae, Sharon Gray OBE, Dr Janet Rose, Laura Purser, Amanda Mordey OBE, Roz McFeeters and many more colleagues across our network. The programme draws on the wealth of knowledge and expertise and crucially the connectivity across our LearningShared community. 

The programme is made up of 7 modules (see below), with each module consisting of:

  • Pre-recorded lecture / presentation
  • Module-related case studies from leading schools
  • Live interactive networking and panel discussion with Q & A
  • Signposted further reading
  • Suggested developmental questions and activities to consider in your own school

Illuminations, contributions and case studies are be provided by outstanding school leaders and practitioners from within our community of practice.

The whole programme is available and accessed on demand (anytime and from anywhere) via a brand new online learning platform and subscribing schools are able to provide access to ALL staff across their school, giving professional learning and development opportunities to your whole staff team.

Later this year, the learning platform will be extended to include a comprehensive networking and community of practice toolkit, that will enable colleagues to search, network, collaborate and participate in online networking opportunities with colleagues and organisational settings across the LearningShared community.
