About the training

  • Marketing and communication is often a time-consuming and challenging task for schools and business leaders. This course allows you to take control of it by working through practical models and creating forward-looking plans. You will save time, focus your financial spend on marketing and be better able to meet your school’s recruitment or income generation targets. On a personal level, marketing is a key area of competence for business leaders looking to develop and move into more senior roles in trusts and this course is an excellent introduction.

  • This can be delivered face-to-face or online.

    The sessions are interactive with plenty of time to discuss, apply the learning to your context and ask questions.

    This training workshop is offered to individual schools, MATs, and local network groups. We will work with you to arrange the training on a date(s) that works for you.

  • Face to face: 1 day

    Online: 1 day or two ½ days

  • Responsibility for marketing is often split between different roles in a school – business leaders, headteachers, other senior teachers, and support staff. While they will all benefit from this course, we’ve found it is especially effective when all those involved attend the course and can spend time developing practical plans away from the day-to-day demands of the classroom or school office.
