Autumn Term: December 2010

Spring Term 2011: March 2011

This publication is aimed at school leaders in Hertfordshire and beyond. We intend to publish the newsletter termly, with three key aims:

  1. To support you by providing information about changes that may affect secondary schools. Currently things are changing quickly and at the time of writing we await the publication of the Education White Paper and the impact of the Comprehensive Spending Review. In addition there are changes to a whole plethora of other issues that will affect the way schools will be led and managed in the future.
  2. To spread good practice from our schools and beyond
  3. To give you information about ways in which we can support you to help improve the effectiveness of your school.

We wish to promote the excellent work that goes on in Hertfordshire secondary schools and would welcome contributions to future editions of this newsletter.

If you have a case study you would like to share, please e-mail Jackie Trenear jackie.trenear@hertscc.gov.uk.
