As a school leader, it's time to offer your pupils a richer, more holistic education that is academic, relational and creative. Here's how.
A Practical Guide to a Big Education offers a bold new vision of an expansive education that is academic, relational and creative and shows you how you can make that shift in your school.
Discover practical guidance and tools to help you offer a more holistic education, balancing 'head, heart and hands' (academic learning, relational wellbeing and creativity) across your leadership, curriculum, pedagogy and assessment practice. Covering a broad range of topics from belonging to behaviour, lunchtimes to learner profiles, design thinking to developing agency in teachers, expert school leaders from across the UK bring advice and insights to help you in your transformational journey.
Each chapter explores inspiring changes you can make, the difference these can make to pupils and practical, realistic ideas of how to achieve this change along with case studies and reflective questions.
Big Education is a Multi-Academy Trust and charity working to transform the education system, ensuring young people receive a balanced education. Big Education run their own schools, as well as provide programmes to develop leaders and teachers.
