About this Event

From Compliance to Commitment: How TSFA Motivates Its People


Rewards and sanctions can secure compliance, but what secures genuine commitment? At Trinity Sixth Form Academy, we have spent the last two years exploring this question through the lens of Self-Determination Theory, working in partnership with researchers from Liverpool John Moores University.


In this session, we will share how we have developed a culture that seeks to move beyond accountability and compliance towards motivation, engagement and professional commitment. We will discuss the research that informed our approach, the practical strategies we have implemented, the evidence we have gathered, and the lessons we have learned along the way. We will also be honest about what surprised us, what has not worked as expected, and the questions we are still wrestling with.


The session will be particularly relevant for senior leaders seeking to build a culture of positive motivation across their organisation, as well as teachers, pastoral leaders and middle leaders interested in how they can get the very best from the students and colleagues they work with every day. Participants will leave with a deeper understanding of the factors that sustain motivation, along with practical ideas they can adapt within their own settings.


Whether you are curious, sceptical, already familiar with Self-Determination Theory, or simply interested in improving outcomes through stronger relationships and better motivation, we would welcome you to join the conversation. Bring your questions, your experience and your challenges.
