Senior Leadership Team
Our Senior Leadership Team works with colleagues across the school on day-to-day operations and strategic developments in the delivery of learning, teaching and assessment. We meet weekly on a Tuesday afternoon to cover a standing agenda of operational matters in the school and on a Thursday morning to focus on strategic planning, such as our participation in the current consultation for Education Reform, digital strategy, attainment aims and more.
