Facilitation

Facilitators make change happen in schools

Why improve facilitation?

Develop facilitators to become the driving force for change in your school, ensuring your strategies, school improvement plans and CPD achieve your school’s expectations.

What do OLEVI facilitators bring to a school?

Encourage learning throughout the school

Facilitators encourage their colleagues to learn from each other.

“I now feel confident constantly sharing my own practice and facilitating an environment where my team also feel confident to improve.”

Penny Rundle, Year 3/4 Unit Leader, Westcliff Primary Academy

Inspire staff to aim for high standards of teaching

Facilitators challenge your staff and help them grow as a team.

“It has been hugely significant in raising the standard of teaching and learning within our school.”

Alison Beane, Executive Headteacher, Mary Rose Academy

Lead outstanding CPD

Facilitators ensure school meetings, training and INSET are more effective.

“I haven’t run meetings in the same way since the first OLEVI session – I make them collaborative and facilitative even if the topic is simple… the impact has been huge!”

David Vernon, Executive Principal, Diverse Academies Trust

Boost teamwork to achieve a shared vision

Facilitators help everyone work together to get new initiatives off the ground.

“It opens up a state of mind where learning and progression is key… OLEVI provided us with the wisdom to break down barriers and discover answers together.”

Lee Mason-Ellis, CEO, The Pioneer Academy
