SWIFT UPDATE Newsletter | Issue 13 | March 2023

March, and spring is in the air.

In this issue, ​ESW Associate & Strategic Leader of Teaching & Research Schools | Education South West, Roger Pope CBE reflects on the broader picture of the teacher strikes: 

"Strikes are a result of that unspoken social contract breaking down. What you do ceases to have the satisfaction of a vocation, and has become instead just work."

Roger commends the Holy Catholic Family MAT for their intentionally designed five key steps strategy for making work rewarding. Read the entire feature in the newsletter link below and see the Data Protection guidance for schools relating to the strikes from our sponsor, SchoolPro TLC. 

Find out about the LSSW Study Visit Programme, the first session of the How to Teach Boys to Succeed in School programme led by Teacher and Author, Mark Roberts and if you've ever wondered about the story behind our SWIFT artwork, you can read an interview with our artist Olivia.
