National awareness day established to celebrate the achievements of school business leaders

By maximising resources, overcoming unforeseen challenges and delivering solutions for teaching staff and pupils, the SBL plays a vital role throughout the academic year

National School Business Leaders’ Day has been created to recognise this incredible contribution to schools and the wider community.

Centred around an inaugural online celebration on Friday June 11th, SBLs throughout the country are invited to register for the live event, ongoing hints & tips, preferential offers and more.

Inspiration from Sally Gunnell OBE

This year’s celebration event will include guest speaker Sally Gunnell OBE. The Essex Girl who captured the hearts of a nation, she remains the only woman ever to hold four major track titles concurrently – Olympic, World, European and Commonwealth.

Following her retirement from international athletics, Sally developed a new career as a television presenter and inspirational speaker. She has written four books on fitness, health, self-fulfillment, and wellbeing.

An opportunity to recognise

Senior leaders and school staff are encouraged to leave their own #SBLKudos message for someone. Whether that’s supporting emerging practitioners, thanking peers that mentor other SBLs, or stories of specific achievements and ingenious solutions.

“We salute everything SBLs do for their schools, especially in the last twelve months which have arguably been the toughest in the history of education.” commented Leyla Tovey event organiser. “In addition to championing the profession we’re hoping to raise awareness of courageous leadership in and out of the sector. We would really value sector support and help to pause, reflect and celebrate the talent and achievements within school business leadership.”

On Friday 11^th June, schools are invited to celebrate the vital role SBLs play and share the amazing way that they have championed and supported one other. To find out more click here.
