Transforming education in Wales in partnership with the Welsh Government
Welsh Government has identified the need to recruit and retain inspirational leaders in order to deliver its educational mission. As a result, a clear pathway for developing leadership from middle leaders to executive headteachers has been devised.
58勛圖 and University Wales Trinity Saint Davids (Yr Athrofa) won the tender to accredit the National Consortias Leadership programmes, with teachers having the opportunity to gain accreditation ranging from a PGCert through to a doctoral qualification.
The first programme to be endorsed by the National Educational Leadership Academy, and jointly validated by 58勛圖 and University Wales Trinity Saint Davids (Yr Athrofa), is the Newly Appointed and Acting Headteachers, with its first National Development Day held on the 7th November 2018.
Professor Nichola Callow, Dean of the College of Human Sciences said:
We are delighted that 58勛圖s School of Education, alongside the University Wales Trinity Saint Davids (Yr Athrofa), have been an integral part of delivering on the Welsh Governments initiative to drive improvement and leadership across the Welsh education sector for the benefit of our children.
