“Building a culture where professional learning is at the heart is shown to be
highly effective. Colleagues within schools or groups of schools where
professional learning is embedded and is responsive are likely to flourish
thereby enabling students to thrive.” (David Weston, Unleashing Great
Teaching)
Welcome to the Cradle to Grave Professional Learning Programmes for 2020-21. After the
extraordinary times of 2020, some aspects of educational professional learning may have
been changed forever. Instead of gathering together in conference rooms and school halls,
teachers have met online via Zoom and shared their expertise via Loom, whist teaching their
students in Google Classroom. The lessons in resilience, communication and the heart of
what’s really important in our schools learned from the challenges of remote education
during Covid 19, will be carried with us as we approach the new academic year and
reconnect with our children, our colleagues and our Alliance community.

At the heart of the work of the Alliance are our co-constructed Vision and Protocols:

‘The schools and institutions which have come together to form the Seven Kings Teaching
School Alliance have high aspirations and shared values who believe that collectively,
learning together, we are stronger. As an Alliance of learning communities we trust in each
other to challenge and support each other; we are relentless in our pursuit to ensure
outstanding outcomes for all our children and to nurture a culture of a love of learning. As
an Alliance we commit to leading innovative networks, building capacity through a belief
that all teachers are leaders and can improve and succeed so that all of our children and the
wider community we serve have access to the very best education and outcomes. The
learning and teaching within the Alliance will be informed by our best practice honed by the
latest educational research and founded on evidence-informed principles.’

Our Cradle to Grave programmes this year, again, develop the professional learning of
teachers and leaders at all levels of their career. The programmes for our Early Career
teachers have been carefully reviewed and planned to best support our NQTs and RQTs who
have had their training disrupted. Our leadership programmes also have an early focus on
the challenges of leading after lockdown and the nurturing needed to reconnect teams. The
programmes are led by a range of outstanding practitioners and leaders from across our
Alliance and all have our coaching ethos at the heart.

We look forward to working with you.
