Sir David Carter’s Playbook for School Improvement
Description
Former National Schools Commissioner Sir David Carter joins The School Podcast to unpack over 40 years in education, what academies got right and wrong, how to build a culture that’s lived not laminated, and why supporting SEND and underserved pupils should drive every decision.
Key Takeaways:
• How academies changed pace, autonomy and accountability
• Leadership mistakes to avoid such as bloated middle tiers
• Behaviour that works: exclusion as a last resort, catch them doing good, visible SLT
• How to engage late or non attending pupils with empathy
• Why alumni networks and vocational pathways matter
• Balancing work and life for long term retention
• The one system fix Sir David would make: properly resource SEND
