In June this year, we are pleased to be offering a series of curriculum leadership workshops in the North of England.
Tickets available from Brown Paper Tickets, via vikkipendry@curriculumfoundation.org or by using the ‘Get in touch’ tab on this website. (Remember to tell us which workshop location you would like to attend!)
Objectives for each workshop:
*To develop the capacity of curriculum leaders to conduct a whole school curriculum review
*To equip curriculum leaders with strategies to ensure a whole school approach to curriculum redesign
*To support the development of a bespoke curriculum framework to clarify curriculum aims and enhance curriculum implementation.
Three inspiring workshop locations to choose from!
Wakefield, Monday 17th June, Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, WF1 2TE
Gainsborough, Tuesday 18th June, Trinity Arts Centre, Trinity St, DN21 2AL
Liverpool, Wednesday 19th June, Blackburne Place, L8 7PE
All workshops will run from 1:30pm until 5pm.
Each workshop has been designed to accommodate a reasonably small delegation (25) in order for our team to most effectively provide bespoke support during the afternoon.
These curriculum leadership workshops are suitable for primary curriculum leaders. If you are a primary subject leader, a curriculum phase leader or a senior leader responsible for overall school curriculum design and implementation, this workshop is for you!
Workshops will be led by Narinder Gill and Vikki Pendry both of whom have extensive experience of leading curriculum review, redesign and implementation in Primary Schools across England…and beyond.
