Why school leaders are committing to Chartered Manager…
The journey of the CMI process has allowed me an opportunity to be reflective of my own practice as well as having time to share and discuss with like-minded school leaders.
The presence of Aiden and Karen has significantly enhanced the experience as it offered time for useful and encouraging dialogue.
I feel that I leave with a revitalised sense of leadership and would thoroughly recommend the course.Basia Lubaczewska | Principal | Al Rabeeth Academy
This process has been invaluable! The timing was perfect for my own professional development and it also enhanced my thoughts around the development of all my teachers.
It was very challenging - in a good way! Having Aiden and Karen facilitating was key to enabling the process to be completed as any misconceptions were dealt with at point of need.
Having two full days to think about what I have achieved was empowering. I would never have thought about them in the depth that I have done.
Absolutely loved it!Sue Darbyshire | CEO/Executive Headteacher | Community First Academy Trust
This was a superb programme which has encouraged the deepest reflection of leadership practice.
I have learnt from the discussions with the colleagues on the programme and valued listening to their leadership challenges in very diverse contexts.
The programme has helped to solidify my vision for headship, which is that ultimately an effective head creates a culture which promotes the development of staff. It is upon these values I hope to lead a school.
Thank you. I have been inspired.Paul Davies | Deputy Headteacher | Fred Longworth High School
A structured process allowing two days to focus, share practice and collaborate with fellow professionals.
The focus on 'I', something that I don't make time to do, allowed me to look at my practice.
The outline and structure of the sessions provide an excellent framework in which to reflect.Sean Power | Director General | Institut Florimont
Completing Chartered Manager enabled me to genuinely reflect on my effectiveness in school and celebrate my achievements through a truly professional process. It’s an excellent tool for professional development and the support of the Chartered Management Institute’s ambassadors has been exceptional throughout. I believe this is a great partnership between the teaching profession and an internationally recognised professional organisation.David Cooper | Headteacher | Batley Girls’ High School
One of the best ways for organisations to move forward is through intelligent evaluation and performance review. Successful businesses and schools have known this for a long time, however, the question remains, ‘How often and how many of us apply the same rigour to our individual contributions?’ Surely, this is one of the most vital activities we can undertake as a leader, so why don’t we? Probably because it requires detailed ‘soul searching’ which is never easy! I found the Chartered Manager a particularly useful tool in this respect because it gave me a structured approach to introspect my strengths, gaps and impact.Shane Ierston | Principal | King’s Leadership Academy - Warrington
As educationalists we are acutely aware of how powerful self-reflection is as a learning tool and the CMI clearly understand this principle too. As a Senior Leader in a High School, time is both precious and often in short supply. However, investing time in the CMI application and assessment process I know has supported me in my professional journey which ultimately benefits the school and its members.Ann McCall | Retired Headteacher | Batley Girls’ High School
My Chartered Manager journey continually focused my reflections, enabling me to recognise what really matters, how I’ve really done and what real impacts I’ve made at my school. In education, we’re notoriously humble, but actually expressing these achievements both reinvigorated my own leadership and management and helped me encourage others further.Karl Wilkinson | Principal | El Alsson British and American International School
