EMPOWERING WOMEN IN EDUCATION LEADERSHIP
EMPOWERING WOMEN IN EDUCATION LEADERSHIP
On 18th March 2015 I had the wonderful opportunity to attend a conference at Newton Prep School on Empowering Women in Education Leadership. The aim of the event was to bring together women from schools in both independent and maintained sectors to share common experiences and create useful partnerships. I look forward to building relationships with some of the schools I met in order to share good practices for the benefit of students and staff.
I had an opportunity to meet with the Rt Hon Nicky Morgan MP (Secretary of State for Education, with additional responsibility for Women & Equalities) she expressed her interest to visit us and was delighted to hear about AAGS. We had an opportunity to listen to Baroness Doreen Lawrence (mother of Stephen Lawrence, who campaigned tirelessly to win justice for her son).
Overall the conference inspired women leaders so that we do not limit ourselves when it comes to taking on leadership positions. This is a powerful message especially for students as AAGS; especially as we help them shape their future to be good British Citizens who make positive contributions to society.
