Leadership continuum

The Leadership continuum was developed by a group of CPD Network members in response to the need to link the development of leadership skills into the Standard for Full Registration (SFR) and the Standard for Chartered Teacher (SCT). The draft continuum (you can download it from the CPD Team blog) looks at leadership activities against the Standards for four groups of teachers:
  • those in years 2-6 of their teaching (SFR)
  • experienced teachers (SFR)
  • those working towards the SCT
  • and those who are maintaining and enhancing the SCT.

Teachers can use the continuum to self-evaluate their leadership practice, and to plan next steps of learning. School leaders might also find the continuum useful in supporting teachers through annual professional review and development interviews.

  • We would be very interested in hearing from anyone who is using the draft continuum or who has amendments to propose.
