Reflecting on an incredibly busy and rewarding week at Gateway with our programmes well underway for the new academic year!
➡️ Monday: We kicked off with the launch of our new Staff Meetings Programme, with the inspiring Hywel Roberts who got us all “bothered” about bringing the curriculum alive for our pupils.
➡️ Tuesday: Our School Business Managers’ Network gathered for the first time this year, led by our network lead Philippa Ollerhead with a focus on HR and reviewing our appraisal processes.
➡️ Wednesday: We welcomed back our Early Years Network, led by the brilliant Ruth Swailes with a focus on supporting children who need additional help in key areas, particularly Personal, Social, and Emotional Development (PSED) and social skills.
We also hosted our first Senior Leaders’ think piece webinar of the year with the engaging Mandy Coalter focusing on ‘Motivating & Engaging the Workforce of Today.’
➡️ Thursday: Our professional learning advisory board of headteachers met to discuss exciting new programme plans for the year ahead.
Our SENCo Network also came together online, lead by our resident SEND guru and network lead Kate Browning, to delve into the challenging topic of ‘Emotionally Based School Avoidance.’
It’s been a busy but fantastic week for our new colleagues in the programmes team—huge well done to Joanne Corrigan and Dale Palmer for ensuring everything ran seamlessly! 😊🤩
