Here’s a dynamic insight into what some of our leaders are experiencing as part of the @leadyorks100.bsky.social programme @exceedacademies.bsky.social and other local trusts fund for the region. Our delegates are in New York City this week. #TogetherWeExceed
I’m off to New York with almost 50 school leaders.
We’ll be visiting some of the highest performing and most innovative schools in the city.
Schools operating in neighbourhoods that for decades so rock bottom educational outcomes.
Schools that changed all that.
I’ll be posting live, so bookmark!

18 months ago, we started our Artificial Intelligence journey.
18 months later our journey continues but we’ve taken big steps forward.
