Couverture de l’ouvrage How to Build Communication Success in Your School

This book provides a step-by-step guide to achieve best practice communication within schools. Communication is a critical component in building strong partnerships with parents, attracting and retaining the best teachers, building and protecting a school?s reputation and, ultimately, in ensuring that students can be at their best.

Aligned to the National Standards of Excellence for Headteachers (2015), as well as Ofsted and the Independent Schools Inspectorate requirements, it provides an ?inside out? approach to create and communicate a compelling vision, building leadership communication skills and supporting the day-to-day management of communication in schools.

Full of practical strategies, audit tools and planning materials to help develop your communication approach, this guide covers key topics such as:

  • attracting and retaining the best teachers;
  • improving the effectiveness of leadership and management;
  • building the reputation of the school;
  • working with parents; and
  • knowing what to do in a crisis.
