The EIS is holding its annual Headteachers' and Depute Headteachers' Conference on Friday 1st March 2019 at the Hilton Edinburgh Carlton.
Titled 'Empowering Schools', the Conference will explore the developing empowering schools agenda in Scotland – what empowered schools could look like in practice; the implications for decision-making within each sphere of the education system; and the extent to which 'empowerment' might lead to greater equity and enhanced outcomes for children and young people.
General Secretary Larry Flanagan will address the Conference, outlining the EIS vision of an empowered school system, with John Swinney, Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Education and Skills; Gayle Gorman, Chief Executive of Education Scotland; and Maureen McKenna, President of ADES, also delivering key contributions on the conference theme.
