Loving the security this provides for school leaders. Confident leaders know where to ask their staff to direct their energies- and where better than the curriculum and its delivery.

The eternal battle - this is something I have tried to do, particularly in the last 5 years when I left my boarding school job (with significant residential duties) and moved abroad to teaching only. I am now Head of Humanities in a new school and while conscious not to make sweeping changes, I do want to spend more time on developing KS3 curriculum initially, as this is where we have greatest freedom. Sadly, workload is often such that having the time for curriculum development is a pipe dream. I am in a better position, timetable-wise, to do that this year, and have already made some changes.
