Thought leadership refers to commissioning leadership related pieces from leaders in trusts, state schools and international schools about what they are doing in their settings – from the philosophical to the practical – to help inspire or inform other educators around the world.
It’s all about providing something useful to people in schools – something that might spark an idea they can try in their school, share with colleagues, or help them think about something in a new way. Ensuring Tes is a destination where they can come and read considered, insightful and professionally relevant articles that helps them feel better informed for their role is vital and something we all take great pride in.
I have written pieces recently on everything from what it’s like when a school is acquired by a large international group to how geopolitics are impacting schools around the world. We've also done important pieces on how international school groups manage teacher training and quality and looked at the proportion of female leader at international schools. I’ve also profiled some high-profile names in the sector, such as Nadim Nsouli, Aatif Hassan and Lisa Crausby that helped provide insights into those leading some of the biggest education groups on the planet. We have also worked hard to commission a diverse array of leaders for their insights and ideas, ranging from ways to be a compassionate leader or insights on SLT restructuring, to discussions on importance of mentoring or boosting oracy skills.
Myself and my colleague Emma Seith also produce a weekly newsletter for the international school market that features a round-up of key content from the week as well as other insights of interest to educators around the world.
