Our summer magazine has landed!

The summer edition of Education Executive’s magazine is now live and ready to read!

Summer’s here! Finally…and, of course, that means a bit of time off and, hopefully, some sunshine! It also means one more issue of Education Executive before we start back in September – and, like all our editions, it’s packed with original articles, priceless insights and even some light-hearted fun in our LIVE IT section!

We kick off our summer issue by shining a spotlight on the period products scheme. The government’s goal to ensure no student misses out on education because of their period – is it working? David Carne offers expert leadership advice on making collaborative procurement work for your school and Keystone Knowledge suggests ways to help you get your voice heard in meetings.

Switching from leadership to management, we explore how best to deal with colleagues and the other members of your team. In the fourth in our series on the Eco-Schools Awards, Helen Burge looks at how to create a culture of healthy living in your school while Andrew Blench tackles the subject of onboarding new staff and the processes you can implement to help your new people get off to a flying start.

As ever, we explore the latest in the ever-changing arena of information, communication and technology in ICT Matters (do you share this with your IT team? You should!)  Dr Fiona Aubrey-Smith starts us off by asking whether your school display is catching the attention of its target audience – the children – and we’ve got a guide to help you navigate the school-to-school data transfer system. Nigel Milligan shares his thoughts on how tech can help to ‘get things done’ – we all need to take heed of his wise words.

As usual, we try to leave you smiling with more light-hearted take on the world of education and school leadership. Take a few minutes to unwind and enjoy a medley of life hacks, inspirational quotes, interesting facts and trivia.

As always, we’d love to hear any suggestions you have for the magazine. If you’d like to get involved with EdExec, or want us to cover a certain topic, please let us know.
