We are excited to announce that our Small Schools’ Programme will be returning in January 2025.
With four sessions planned for the spring and summer terms, we will focus on key topics such as headteacher wellbeing and the use of AI to manage workload. Participants will hear from a range of speakers, including current headteachers of smaller schools, who will share broad principles and practical strategies that have proven effective in their settings.
In each session participants will also have the opportunity, to talk with presenters and each other and to network and share ideas in the ‘Live Lounges’.

We are thrilled by the positive response to the first series, which has even earned us a nomination for a BETT award in the Leadership and Management Solutions category for 2025 and an endorsement from Neil Short, Chairman of the National Association of Small Schools,
'On behalf of the National Association of Small Schools (NASS) I am delighted to recommend the Small Schools Programme devised and developed by HFL. The sessions which I saw were amongst the best specifically devoted to small schools I have ever seen.”
Dr James Inglis, headteacher at Northaw CE Primary School shares a wonderful testimonial about how the school benefited from the programme.
