By We Are In Beta
Learn how to increase the financial efficiency of your curriculum by getting the right teachers in the right places through rigorous Curriculum Led Financial Planning.
Getting staffing right vital to making sure your students succeed. But now, more than ever, there are serious limitations to what’s possible within your budget. There are choices you’ll need to make that will be both hard and unpopular. So:
How do you make sure your curriculum is workable from a staffing perspective?
How do you increase the financial efficiency of it?
How do you make the tough decisions and what do you need to consider when making them?
Join us to learn
How to do rigorous CLFP (live demonstration of the tool Walton use in Excel)
How to avoid problems like: too many teachers teaching out of specialism, late and unexpected recruitment, overspend and staff who are unhappy with their timetable
How to make decisions about staffing, recruitment and courses and what metrics, principles, compromises and other dark arts to consider when making them (through some real life scenarios)
What difference does this make?... Meet the school
Over the past few years Walton has seen benefits like:
Making efficiency savings into the tens of thousands of pounds

Meet the speaker:
Michael Hoad  is Vice Principal: Curriculum at Walton Academy.
Who is this for?
Senior leaders whose curriculum is not workable or efficient. Those who find themselves facing more curriculum planning related problems that need compromise than they would like (such as teachers out of specialism, overspend and late recruitment). Or senior leaders who want to move take the next steps to make it even more workable and efficient to free up valuable resources to allocate elsewhere.
Middle leaders, in any subject who aspire to become whole curriculum leaders. Or those who want to learn more about CLFP to manage their SLT upwards.
Resources you’ll get to access afterwards:
