@Headteacherchat I’m a new head - I have NPQH and I found it to be no preparation for headship. The most useful things have been having a coach and mentor

[Marie @sec_slt_]

@Headteacherchat I was asked to list financial KPIs and analyse the budget

[Marie @sec_slt_]

@hussain_roksana @ottleyoconnor @SFL2326 @Miss_Snuffy Depends on policy but I would avoid that for a year 11 if possible

@Headteacherchat I was in the same position- time and feedback might help them from the panel before you start. Then be yourself- share your vision- include and develop them

[Marie @sec_slt_]

@Strickomaster Had the same conversation as a new head this week. I really do believe that there could and should be better training and support

@RachelBostwick1 Ours has started now

@ICT_MrP Cold caller

@Headteacherchat Some of the staff where I’m head do this, it makes such a difference to me, especially on tough days

@AlexKennedy_97 @sainsburys No had to go in store and they won’t let me sort it there so having to do the whole thing again. They are likely to lose my custom

[Marie @sec_slt_]

@sainsburys can’t get through on any line please advise

[Marie @sec_slt_]

@sainsburys There must be an issue- please get someone to look into it and provide an update

[Marie @sec_slt_]

@sainsburys I’ve called over 20 times since 8am - the payment line can’t take calls the general line takes details then cuts off. My order is due at 9

[Marie @sec_slt_]

@Headteacherchat I really need to plan this well!

[Marie @sec_slt_]

@Headteacherchat Nearly broke me twice - happy to help

[Marie @sec_slt_]

@Headteacherchat Succulents are good - don’t need much tlc

[Marie @sec_slt_]

@Headteacherchat I went nasuwt to ASCL - the support is phenomenal, can’t recommend highly enough
