For head teachers, team-building is all about getting relationships right and is a crucial first step to achieving their overall vision and ambitions for their schools.

It's not just a matter of appointing the right staff to the right jobs. It's about developing good relations between the leadership, staff, pupils, parents and wider community.

This process is tied in with the values head teachers want to instil and the qualities you will need to build high performing senior team include; emotional intelligence & an almost instinctive understanding of what makes people tick. Without these qualities it is virtually impossible to build a successful senior team. Get the team dynamics right however and much of the rest follows naturally.

Investing in the development of your teams will always yield positive dividends, if you don't develop people, they will go and work for someone that will! A fantastic team won’t suddenly appear if you ask a group of people to “work together”.
