Key Subjects
2024 has already been a challenging year with schools facing increased pressures. The day will be a pragmatic and thought leadership led day relating to subjects such as:
- Funding Shortages: Many schools in the 'areas of oppurtunity' receive less funding than those in other parts of the country, limiting their ability to invest in resources, facilities, and staff. How Trusts in challenging areas balance the books and wider challenges.
- Changes Expected from Government: With a recent change in government, a theme will run throughout the day of 'what is the new governments plans with Trusts'?
- Challenging Recruitment and Retention: Addressing the challenge of schools struggling to attract and retain more high-quality teachers and staff, particularly in remote areas.
- Ageing Infrastructure and Facilities: Some schools in the North may have outdated or inadequate facilities, which can impact student learning and wellbeing. Additionally, schools in remote areas may face challenges related to transportation and access to resources.
- Mental Health and Wellbeing: in 2024, Trusts more than ever, are seeing an increase in mental health and wellbeing concerns among their staff and students.
