Module description

Perfect for completing together as a board, or as chair alongside your senior executive leader, this module provides a brief introduction to the framework for ethical leadership in education and contains an audit that will allow you to analyse your practices against the framework. This audit can provide great evidence that you are an ethical leadership team and organisation or help you to plan some quick wins and longer-term actions if you're not quite there yet.

Containing over a hundred examples of effective actions our pathfinders have tried and tested in striving to make ethics a more explicit part of everyday life, this module will give you the tools you need to help model and support children and young people to become tomorrow's ethical citizens.

      User review

    • “Very clear in its presentation. My school currently demonstrated many of the behaviour, processes and practices out lined, but, we now need to explicitly use the language of the Framework to article these implicit values within our school community.”
