I would describe the service that I received from ASCL as excellent. All of the advice, support and wisdom that I was offered have helped me to move on in life now that the situation has been brought to a conclusion. Headteacher, North East
The sessions were completely tailored to our needs so we got so much from the time with the consultant. In addition to the knowledge we gained there were some really useful and candid discussions about pitfalls that I'm sure will save us so much time in the future. Business Manager, London
By far the best CPD I've had in a long time. Practical but at the same time really examined the issues in depth. I would highly recommend this to any SLT member. Deputy Headteacher
I can't tell you how glad I am that I attended. Addressed many of the myths and the areas of fear I had and has given me not only knowledge but so much confidence. Thank you. Director of Curriculum, Midlands
Thank you ASCL for a brilliant event. It has helped me get to grips with the national context as well as thinking about my own leadership style and approaches. I will be recommending to others in my trust. Head of School, South East England
I really wish I had attended this earlier. I feel so much better equipped to deliver in my role thanks to this course. Assistant Head, North East
