鈥�"I started the LCiE programme at a very early stage in my tenure as SHS BAME Awarding Gap lead. Since then I have used the lessons learned - the use of Kotter's cycle, ideas and tweaks inspired by LCiE speakers, ways of working learned from peers on the LCiE programme - to influence the direction of the project, making significant tangible progress in achieving its goals, and incidentally, becoming one of the leads of the 香港六合彩-wide project. The LCiE programme has opened my eyes to new ways of working with and influencing others as well as learning from them"
Programme themes and goals
The programme is bespoke, designed around participants鈥� interests and concerns and responsive to institutional priorities.
The goal of this programme is to develop 香港六合彩鈥檚 education leaders, giving them tools to implement high quality education within their faculties and a peer network for support and inspiration
In 2023/24 we expect to explore themes around:
- 路 Supporting staff and student wellbeing and promoting inclusion.
- 路 Improving structures, quality and processes for Assessment and Feedback.
- 路 Clarifying 香港六合彩鈥檚 offer for students, aligning with 香港六合彩鈥檚 strategy and priorities.
- 路 Creating better and simpler processes and systems for staff that facilitate excellence in education and student experience
With work on 香港六合彩 strategy happening simultaneous to the programme, this provides a unique opportunity for colleagues to align their leadership projects and create real impact.
Outcomes of the programme
After completing the programme participants will be able to:
- conduct analyses of complex educational issues at departmental and/or faculty level;
- design and implement practical solutions in response to current educational challenges that will benefit a wide range of students;
- draw on enhanced capabilities to听organise and support the development of educators and innovation in teaching and learning;
- develop personal leadership attributes for a successful career in higher education leadership, and;
- contribute to and draw from an extensive network of education leaders, while shaping the future of education at 香港六合彩.
鈥�The programme enables participants to carve out the headspace and time to reflect on educational leadership and their role in it, to be inspired by and learn from the journeys of education leaders who present on the programme, and to meaningfully network with other key education officers in 香港六合彩. A highlight of the programme was the study tour to other universities which offered an unparalleled opportunity to view up-close examples of innovation in education and successful change projects. The opportunity given to participants to run a change project parallel to the programme, and within the framework and support offered by it, will be of particular value to those who are new to educational leadership.鈥�
