In this episode of the podcast Matt and Femi speak with Sam Strickland. Sam has had a long and interesting teaching career – he is currently the principal of Duston school where GCSE results have gone from the bottom 20% nationally to the top 20% under his tenure. Sam is also the author of 3 fantastic books: education exposed, education exposed 2 and his latest work “The behaviour manual”.
In this interview Sam discusses visible leadership, data, teacher workload, centralised behaviour systems, the importance of a school’s mission, vision and values to drive the school improvement plan, implementing new initiatives in schools, staff training, CPD, pathways and performance management. The trio also talk about big lectures, line-ups, SLT meetings, staff briefings, devolved directed time and much much more.
