Step 2: 

Preparation for coaching conversation – At home

• Complete the leadership reflection wheel – a fundamental tool and challenging basis for deep personal reflection on yourself as a leader. Your reflections will form the basis of our discussion in Step 3.  Click here to access the online version.
• Prepare a 5-minute mission statement: In preparation for your coaching conversation (Step 3), we would like you to start exploring your own philosophy by preparing and delivering a 5-minute mission statement. You’ll have the opportunity to review and redraft your mission statement while on the programme. For this reason, we’ll record your mission statement for your own personal reflection. 

Your mission statement should be no longer than 5 minutes and should explore the following;

• What you believe to be the purpose of school
• The extent to which you see this in our current system
• Your vision for an alternative future
• Your personal story and motivation

Step 3: 

Coaching conversation – 45 minutes 

• Schedule an online coaching conversation to help us understand more about your leadership journey and how the BLA will support you.
• Be prepared to talk us through your leadership reflections and share your 5-minute mission statement in this call

• Please note this conversation will not be assessed.
