ILMP Middle Leaders
Summer Course

July 26th – 29th 2009, Central London

"Leadership is fundamental to school improvement and transformation. It is now widely understood that leadership is at its most effective when it is widely distributed across the school."

John West-Burnham, Senior Research Advisor, NCSL, UK

Highly practical development program

The ILMP Middle Leaders course will be held at the Fieldwork Education offices in central London. Our offices are located on Buckingham Gate, Westminster, next to Buckingham Palace, Green Park and St. James Park. A great place to learn and to visit!

Recent research highlights the significant contribution that Middle Leaders make to the learning in successful schools.

Three hugely experienced organisations – Fieldwork Education, European Council of International Schools, and the National Association of Headteachers – have been working together to bring a fresh approach to the professional development of all those working in middle leadership positions in international and internationally minded schools.

With the focus on learning-centred, morally driven, sustainable leadership and management practice, the International Leadership and Management Program for Middle Leaders (ILMP ML) provides a highly practical development program that can be applied to any school environment around the world.

Who is this program for?

The International Leadership and Management Program for Middle Leaders is specifically aimed at anyone in a leadership role such as a Coordinator, Head.

What format will the program follow?

The program will be a mix of input from the session leaders, personal reflection, group discussions and forward planning. Like everything Fieldwork Education does, each session will be based upon the best and most recent research. The program will be practical, accessible and jargon-free.

How will the program benefit you?

By the end of the program you should be able to:

  • ensure that learning is at the centre of everything that happens in schools
  • contribute to a growing network of international school leaders
  • take responsibility for key areas of school improvement and feel fully accountable for the outcome of these actions
  • feel increasingly confident in your professional relationships with students, staff and board members; even in difficult or confrontational situations
  • be flexible and have the ability to deputise for senior leaders when the need arises
  • know and promote the principles of distributed leadership
  • build a professional portfolio of leadership and management skills that will enable you to
