The Department Development Programme is built from a national network of subject leaders seeking to make the greatest impact within their schools.
Members of the Programme develop leadership approaches aimed at supporting effective teaching and learning within their department.
The Programme is completed by setting annual objectives across four development areas or embarking on a three-year action research project.
- Enhance your department by:
- Developing a challenging, innovative and enriching curriculum
- Sharing best practice and developing practical approaches for running your department
- Empowering your students to use your subject as a tool within, and beyond, the curriculum
