Yesterday (6th November 2021) I delivered a workshop at IncludEd, a fantastic conference organised the The Difference which aimed to address the question of ‘How do we build schools that work for vulnerable pupils?’
My workshop focussed on the new insights I have gained since moving from mainstream pastoral leadership into PRU senior leadership.
The slide deck for my presentation can be found below and a PDF download is also available by clicking here
The golden nuggets which attendees were left with are:
Relationships are essential
Building a culture of inclusion over intervention
ALL behaviour as communication
Being a community for the community you serve
Unconditional positive regard

Much of my workshop compared work I have completed as a researcher, author of The Head of Year’s Handbook and as a practitioner. Please do take a look at some of my published work which can be found here.
