A journey of support for SBLs
Seminar brief: The impact of COVID, along with the daily challenges of being a school business leader (in whatever guise this maybe), has led to many SBLs leaving the education sector. Funding cuts, changes to revenue streams, ever-changing legislation and bureaucratic imposition are just a few of the stressors we have had to battle over the past two years. But, out of the struggle a movement was born. #NotBroken came about one Friday morning in Sally’s makeshift study to support those that were on the brink of handing in their notice. The journey from #NotBroken to SBL Support Hub has been immense and Sally will walk us through how this looked, how it is today and what you can expect in the future.
In this seminar Sally Boaden will explore:
- The journey from #NotBroken to SBL Support Hub.
- Support gifts to the SBL community.
- What the future of SBL Support Hub holds.
Take home points:
- Harnessing the power of the SBL Community.
- SBL support and where to find out.
- Why you are never alone.
This session is for: Any support member of staff
