Welcome to another episode of Insights with NetSupport!
In each episode, we aim to bring you an interesting guest who shares their wealth of expertise, knowledge and insights around a relevant topic.
Our aim is simple: to inspire and equip you with new insights that will empower your teaching and learning or leadership activities. So, get ready to dive into this conversation, which builds upon a recent recording of Insights with David Weston from the Teacher Development Trust around teacher CPD.
In this episode, we are delighted to be joined by Deputy Head at Beckfoot School, Nikki Sullivan.
Hot on the heels of her recent sharing at the national ResearchED event in London, Nikki talked us through lots of insightful thinking and chalkface action. Balancing theory and practice is never an easy endeavour and here, Nikki shares openly about the approaches that take place in her school and the research which underpins it.
Practical in what she shared and measured in the context of her school, Nikki referenced the work which has informed the practices around professional learning she leads on. So, expect conversations around sustainable logistics, long-serving structures, impactful mechanisms, social support and ways to achieve it, culture-building and the importance of a coherent curriculum. There are so many insights shared, you’d better bring a notebook along!
Putting staff and students at the heart of her strategy, Nikki clearly knows her stuff and this episode is a must-see for anyone in education with an interest in learning more about culture, motivation and professional learning.
Standing on the shoulders of giants, Nikki also took the time to pay tribute to those who have impacted on her work such as Nick Hart; Zoe and Mark Enser and their book: The CPD Curriculum; Shaun Allison and his Perfect Teacher-Led CPD book; Sarah Cottingham and Dylan Wiliam, among others.
