Headteacher's Away Day | 2025
Our Headteacher's Away Day is held in the tranquil setting of Franciscan Centre Ladywell and provides an opportunity to reflect on your role in a Christian context. This day is for headteachers, executive headteachers and heads of school.
We have found that headteachers value having the opportunity to share with colleagues therefore this day is not open to other members of the SLT or for governors.
We will announce our special guests and agenda nearer the time of our event.

space of peace, beauty, prayer and reflection. Take quiet time away from the haste of everyday life..."
