This timely conference focused on resource management in schools at a time of constrained budgets.Delegates assessed the effectiveness of support for school leaders being put in place by Government, and priorities for how it is delivered and directed going forward.
The agenda also looked at procurement, resource management, and developing relevant leadership and management structures - bringing out latest thinking on best practice and new approaches.
Sessions examined initiatives to develop the management of the school workforce and their workload, reduce procurement costs in areas such as recruitment and standard frequent purchases, and improving collaboration between schools on managing costs - which are all areas of focus for the Department for Education’s strategy for supporting school resource management.
Delegates discussed the implementation of the strategy and the Integrated Curriculum Financial Planning model, as well as practical ways forward including opportunities for collaboration both in terms of procurement and expertise in driving forward standards in resource management - and how school leaders can be supported in implementing these changes.
Further sessions looked at the creation of supportive management structures and cultures within schools and the implementation of effective training and focused development priorities for staff - as well as what can be learnt from other models of leadership outside of education.
