Headteachers and school representatives came to a networking breakfast at Wellington College Learning Alliance this week.
The event, organised by the Wellington College Teaching Alliance, saw 16 headteachers and other staff from the alliance’s partner schools meet over coffee and pastries to catch up with each other and hear about the latest work of the alliance.
Paul Jennings, Head of Educational Developments and Partnerships at Wellington College, spoke about the alliance and asked members of the partnership what the WCLA could do to help pupils and staff in their schools.
Guests also heard from Katy Granville-Chapman, deputy head (teacher development and character education) at Wellington College about a programme of Human Flourishing with which WCLA schools could get involved.
Simon Roundell, head of business at the college, and his colleague Olly Rigby, also talked about an app designed to help teachers manage Individual Healthcare Plans for students with special educational needs.
Iain Henderson, director of The Bridge, talked about the college’s programme of CPD events for school staff.
Mr Jennings said afterwards: “This is always a great chance to see some old friends and meet some new faces in our partnership.
“We heard some really interesting presentations on work that we can share with our partner schools and we hope they will all want to get involved.”
