Emerging leaders
Middle leaders are the future of our education system - and future ASCL members. ‘Emerging leaders’ is ASCL’s name for those middle leaders who have the desire and ambition to move into senior leadership positions.
It is important to all of us - especially as the number of senior leaders reaching retirement age swells - that emerging leaders have the encouragement, support and mentoring they need to progress quickly up the career ladder. That’s where ASCL’s Emerging Leaders Network comes in. The network is about more than invitations to courses, although that is part of it. It is about building a network where future leaders can begin to share ideas and experiences outside of their own institutions.
At the moment, membership of the Emerging Leaders Network is free to any middle leader who is keen to develop his/her leadership skills and has the endorsement of his/her head or principal. Membership of the network includes:
- an email newsletter twice a term with relevant updates and advice
- occasional ASCL publications which we think would be helpful
- an online forum just for the network
- feedback and advice on preparing CVs and going for promotion
- information and access to relevant ASCL courses
- opportunities for informal networking with colleagues
To register your interest please fill in the form. If you are already an ASCL member, and would like to nominate someone for the network, please fill in the form for members.
