SSASA CONFERENCE - Leading school culture in small schools

We know our work in small schools is complex. But, stripping it all back, Adam Voigt of Real Schools urges us to put one job at the top of our improvement agenda - leading school culture. At this year's conference, you will be inspired to focus on the practical work you were born to do in your school every single day; small investments with big returns, inside and outside the classroom.

For small school leaders and their teaching teams, Adam will delve into what culture is, how it underpins every school objective, promotes strong practice and optimises wellbeing. We'll get practical strategies that will make our school a place where respect, engagement, and learning thrive.

For the leader, Adam's high-energy and provocative presentation will challenge us to re-imagine school leadership as a leader of school culture; and as our 'one job'.

And for teachers, Adam's workshop will show us how a restorative approach fosters real relationships, increases student accountability, and makes learning something kids want to do (not just something they have to do).

The conference will kick off with drinks and a dinner on Sunday night (5pm, for dinner at 7pm); and culminate in a day of collaboration with a focus on leading school culture and student engagement on Monday (8.45am - 3.30pm).

Info: Join us for our pre-conference networking event at the Grand Chancellor Hotel - drinks, from 5pm, for dinner at 7pm (included in ticket).

Info: Settle in, with your teaching team if fortunate to bring them along, and enjoy much-needed camaraderie and targeted, context-specific support to drive a positive school culture of engaged learners and teams. Refer: FULL program (below)
