OUTLINE: 

Never in living memory have our schools had to close and deal with a crisis like the Covid-19 pandemic. Schools have had to deal with closure, provide education for the children of key/critical workers and vulnerable children, provide effective safeguarding remotely, support home learning, risk assess a limited opening and full opening of schools and provide a recovery curriculum all in a space of 3 months. As American Congressman Rahm Emanuel said “Never Let a Good Crisis Go to Waste”. We will explore the lessons learned and what next in Governance.

  • Strategic Leadership in a crisis
  • What happened in governance and the governance response
