...the delivery was really inspiring...

"I enjoyed being able to share experiences with others. It felt daunting at first, but it became the part of the course I enjoyed the most. I also liked how we were encouraged to think about ourselves as headteachers and the vision and ethos we would like to lead and develop. I wasn't certain I wanted to be a headteacher, but the delivery was really inspiring and made me want to pursue it."- Deputy Headteacher from North Yorkshire 21/22
