A one-day conference focusing on impactful leadership of teaching and learning, for middle and senior leaders in primary and secondary sectors.

The day will be led by Bruce Robertson, CEO of Next Level Educational and author of The Teaching Delusion trilogy and Power Up series. As headteacher, Bruce’s leadership of Berwickshire High School was instrumental in turning around a school rated ‘weak’ and ‘unsatisfactory’ in an HMIE inspection, to one widely recognised as sector-leading in its approaches to teaching & learning improvement, ethos, and staff professional development.

Themes covered will include leadership of pedagogy and professional development, including strategies to monitor and evaluate impact.
