Targeted Support – RQT Leadership Talent Management Programme Emerging Leaders Programme for Recently Qualified Teacher This programme is aimed at teachers post NQT in their first 2-4 years of teaching who have either just been appointed to their first leadership role or who have been talent spotted as someone with potential. As the programme is focused on leadership rather than subject content, the programme will be appropriate for the following colleagues: • • Teachers with the potential to become middle leaders Teachers who have a small or focused leadership responsibility. The core objectives of the Emerging Leaders Programme would be: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. To create a talent pool of young leaders from Early Years to Secondary who will understand the leadership challenges in early years, primary and secondary phases and be able to lead the 0-19 agenda of the future, with a particular focus on understanding the need to close the gap, building on their knowledge of what has been successfully done before so that the approach to disadvantaged students is pro-active and not reactive. To create a talent pool of leaders from all phases from whom our respective TS alliances would be able to recruit; To work towards creating a pool of leaders who start to work across phases through joint appointments or secondments; To create a supply of emerging leaders for the NPQML and NPQSL licensed provision programmes; To create a supply of SLEs who have an understanding of the 0-19 agenda To develop a cadre of leaders who know what outstanding learning looks like in their respective settings and who are expert practitioners for disadvantaged students; To build on the work of the Boolian Maths Hub (CLF and Ashley Down Federation) by retaining Maths specialists and developing them into the numeracy and maths leads of the future. There is no charge for this course Participants will be asked to write a letter outlining why they should be selected for the Emerging Leaders Programme and this will be endorsed by a head teacher’s reference. Priority will be given to shortage subjects and schools in challenging circumstances. Our maximum number is 20 per cohort.
