Developing your long term vision
Description
New headteacher Vic Goddard is faced with the challenge of creating his first school development plan and is feeling the weight of the responsibility. Expert coach Mark Whitby joins Vic to help him tackle the task by encouraging him to look at the bigger picture rather than the imminent task at hand. In addition Vic works to identify his leadership style and ethos as part of the process of developing his vision of where the school will be in 3-5 years time. Once this is in place, then they move to looking at the steps that need to be taken and the other people that this could involve. A key tip the coach offers the new head is to allow time to think things through before committing to anything on paper.
