Subject leaders in small schools can carry a significant workload. This will help you to be organised and manage different subjects at the same time.

In larger schools there are often opportunities to build teams around subjects. As the subject leader, you need to lead the team, and the subject!

Every subject leader needs to know the origins of their subject in EYFS (and nursery if you have one). This is how you can gain this understanding easily.

The learning conversation avoids disagreement and conflict, but tackles the core issues of teaching and learning and how to improve them.

Most of the subject leader resources are directly relevant to SENCOs too. They will help you understand, evaluate and influence your colleagues' practice with and impact on pupils with SEND.
