Invest in your leaders and you invest in everyone they lead.

Schools and Trusts face a specific leadership challenge: the people at the top are sometimes the least likely to receive the support they most need.  Headteachers routinely support the wellbeing and development of their staff while their own professional development is an afterthought. MAT CEOs carry trust-wide accountability with limited peer support. Senior leaders are promoted for their expertise and then often left to work out leadership largely on their own.  Coaching Aloud works with schools and trusts to change that with tailored coaching programmes that support your leaders at every level, from new middle leaders to executive heads and CEOs.  Ros brings something rare to this work: she has been a headteacher, SENCO, DSL and MAT CEO herself. Commissioning coaching from someone who has sat in your seat is a fundamentally different experience.
