aHead Service

It’s good and important to talk  

Headship can be isolating and overwhelming, particularly during these challenging times. We wanted to remind you that the team of aHead Professional Partners are here to provide confidential support and guidance to school leaders.

the aHead support service is for all Headteachers and Heads of School and is designed to promote effective school leadership and your personal wellbeing. This service is designed to start from a position of strength and the recognition that it is important to have an opportunity to talk about what is getting in the way before it becomes crisis management.

The aHead service has recruited a team of Professional Partners, experienced, current or recently serving Headteachers to provide;

• A personal and professional support service for all school leaders.
• Fresh perspectives to address professional challenges.
• Advice and expertise to develop and strengthen school leadership teams.
• Signposting to other professional support and guidance services.
• Opportunities to work alongside other leaders to develop understanding of and approaches to key issues in school
