Yesterday, Y5 went to an RE roadshow hosted by St Philips Centre. It helped them learn how people from different backgrounds can live kindly and peacefully together. Peterborough is the perfect place for it, with its amazing, diverse communities!

Collaboration.

Thank you, team! We will certainly work together again soon.

@jon_hutchinson_ This is such a career changing opportunity. The network of incredible individuals I’ve met has been invaluable and the knowledge I’ve gained has developed me significantly as a leader. If you are considering headship, please do apply and drop me a DM if you’d like to know more

[Jon Hutchinson @jon_hutchinson_]

Now, more than ever, we need headteachers who are relentless in improving the outcomes for children who need it the most.

That’s why we’re investing in the next generation of headteachers in the region.

People, we hope, like you.

[Jon Hutchinson @jon_hutchinson_]

Headteachers are extremely well placed to address this challenge through improving educational outcomes.

But headteachers can also act as civic leaders, understanding the assets and needs of the community that they serve, and coordinating responses to meet specific challenges.

[Jon Hutchinson @jon_hutchinson_]

And the gap is a big problem.

Children from underserved communities in the east of England enter primary school almost 6 months behind their more affluent peers.

By the end of KS4, disadvantaged pupils are on average two years behind their more affluent peers.

[Jon Hutchinson @jon_hutchinson_]

So it’s more than a leadership course really.

It’s a mission. A movement.

We believe that collection action is the only thing that will shift the dial on this for all children in the East of England.

No single headteacher is going to solve the disadvantage gap on their own.

[Jon Hutchinson @jon_hutchinson_]

In just 5 days, applications for the cohort 2 of East100 will close.

But what is it?

East100 is, at its simplest, a leadership course. You’ll join a cohort of 20 leaders from different phases/settings for a year of development activities, in preparation for your first headship.

[Diocese of Ely Multi-Academy Trust @DEMAT__]

We’re so proud to be involved with this brilliant programme. What an amazing opportunities for the future school leaders in the East of England! 🤩

[Jon Hutchinson @jon_hutchinson_]

It’s a collaboration from 8 trusts in the region.

@ASSETEdu, @ChilternLT, @DEMAT__, @meridiantrustuk, @SapientiaTrust, @OrmistonAcads, @UnitySchoolsP and @ElliotSchools have come together to design and drive the initiative forward.

[Elm C of E Primary School @elmcofeprimary]

Yesterday, year 6 invited their parents/carers into school so they could read a short narrative to them. The children were so excited to be able to read to their adults some of their own work! Despite the gruesome nature of the stories, the smiles filled the room 📖📝
