Event description

For collaborative teams, one of the biggest challenges is knowing how to use time productively. Based on the masterful book, Collaborative Teams That Work, this highly practical retreat provides definitive guidance for teams to work through ongoing cycles of learning, so they can have maximum impact.

Gain a clear understanding of the specific actions and associated tasks that collaborative teams must carry out, along with the actions that leadership teams need to implement to support collaborative teams.

Overview

At their worst, collaborative teams can seem like yet another burden to bear – perhaps even a frustrating waste of time in a school day already overflowing with commitments.

If your team struggles to use its time productively, and is expected to work collaboratively with little support or knowledge on how to do this, it’s difficult to use the power of the group to have any real impact.

The authors of the masterful book, Collaborative Teams That Work, Colin Sloper and Gavin Grift, are your hosts in this one-day intensive retreat, which provides definitive guidance and support for school and team leaders. Designed specifically for Primary Educators; principals, assistant principals, collaborative teams, leadership staff, classroom teachers and specialist teachers, you’ll learn how to apply the essential evidence-based actions high-performing collaborative teams implement.

You’ll leave with new insights on how to overcome common challenges, measure impact and use clear processes to plan and conduct successful collaborative team meetings.

Unlike some other retreats, we spend much less time on the ‘how’ and ‘why’ – instead digging deeper into the actual tasks that collaborative teams in a PLC need to focus their efforts on.

This relates to the work itself but also to the many different aspects of managing and encouraging people within these teams.

Audience
