HOMETEACHING SCHOOLSPECIALIST LEADERS IN EDUCATION Specialist Leaders in Education (SLEs) The concept of the SLE role was introduced in 2011. The role aims to help to improve the quality of school leadership through school-to-school support, ultimately raising standards and improving outcomes for children. SLEs are outstanding middle and senior leaders who have the skills to support individuals and/or teams in other schools. They understand what outstanding leadership practice in their area of expertise looks like, and are skilled in helping other leaders to achieve it in their own context. SLEs focus on developing leadership capacity. While other roles (e.g. advanced skills teachers) focused on developing classroom expertise, this role is about developing other leaders so that they have the skills to lead their own teams and improve practice in their own schools. This may be done through one-to-one or group support and could involve a variety of activities. Central Beds Teaching School Partnership (CBTSP) has successfully recruited and trained a team of SLEs to work in BEST schools and across Central Bedfordshire. The Teaching School is responsible for their deployment and have set a daily rate of £275 (minimum allocation of time is a half day) for commissions in Central Bedfordshire. Areas covered are: KS 1/2/3 English MFL Phonics KS2/3/4/5 Maths KS4/5 Science Humanities Behaviour/Attendance Physical Education If you are interested in working with an SLE or would like to find out more about their areas of expertise, please contact Sharon Jeffs on sjeffs@bestacademies.org.uk In this section CPD LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT SCITT SPECIALIST LEADERS IN EDUCATION STRUCTURED PROGRAMMES ACCESSIBILITY SETTING On Colours C C C C Font family Default Arial Verdana Comic Sans MS Times New Roman Font size A A A A Bedfordshire Schools Trust, Best House, Shefford Road, Clifton, Shefford, Bedfordshire SG17 5QS Sitemap | High Visibility Version | Cookie Settings | Privacy Policy | Copyright 2021 © Bedfordshire Schools Trust | Website by e4education Cookie Policy This site uses cookies to store information on your computer.
