The March edition of Education Executive’s magazine is now live and ready to read!
March is a month of many important dates. Whether you have been flipping (and hopefully catching) pancakes on Shrove Tuesday, growing your daffodils for St David’s Day, drinking Guinness in preparation for St Patrick’s Day, or organising a special day for Mother’s Day, there are many days of celebration! Someone else who has much to celebrate, after being nominated for SBL of the year at the Tes Awards, is Kevin Parker. Kevin spoke to us about how he went from new SBL only five years ago to becoming award-nominated and the impressive achievements he has accomplished at his school during his time there.
After recently going through the process herself, Conny Brandt talks us through the steps of hiring a new headteacher and the lessons she learnt. David Carne explains the importance of being a self-aware leader in education and how you can improve your self-awareness. One of the aspects David discusses is the importance of listening to others and following on from this theme Simon Hepburn explores how schools can become better listeners through a variety of proven methods. In the first of a series of articles, which will focus on how to address each area of the Eco Schools Award, Helen Burge gives her advice on how can you can make your school more biodiverse.
Moving on to all things ICT, Dr Fiona Aubrey-Smith gives her top tips on how you can make informed choices when it comes to procuring edtech and Nigel Milligan explains how you can implement a strategic plan in your IT department to achieve successful outcomes.
