The IAA is delighted to have established a strategic alliance with Connecting Learning. Our partnership will add an essential element to the support available to new and existing academies in ensuring high quality learning experiences for all their students and achieving the greatest impact from available resources.  Academies have always been at the vanguard of the education system in terms of developing best learning practice and this partnership will help to maintain that position by providing important development opportunities for leaders and practitioners. Our respective organisations share a firm belief in the strength and effectiveness of professional networks and we are proud to be able to build on existing, longstanding partnerships in order to benefit the workforce and the children and young people whom we serve.

Keeping ICT up to date is expensive and school leaders cannot afford to waste resources.  they need the right tools and information to strategically plan how they can use available technology to best improve teaching and learning.  ASCL is delighted to support the EXite programme launch and we encourage our members to find out more.

Brian Lightman, ASCL General Secretary

 

The EXite (Exploiting Information Technology in Education) Leadership Programme is designed to support leaders and their workforce to think through these issues, review best practice and plan for sustainable change.  Designed by Connecting Learning and IET Associates the EXite programmes support leadership teams maximise the potential of new technologies, ensuring impact on learning and value for money.

NAHT positively welcomes this news.  Members have seen that there is a gap since the ending of the excellent SLICT programme and NAHT are pleased to be engaged with EXite and is sure its members will gain great value from it.  School leaders are looking to lead and manage technology well and will value the credibility of the two organisations behind this programme.
