Across four self-paced sessions, Dr Barbara Watson draws on her deep experience in early childhood leadership to help you build the skills that make the biggest difference to your team's growth:
1. Creating a learning and improvement-focused culture Discover how to shift your team's mindset from "getting through the day" to genuinely growing together — and what leaders do differently to make learning feel safe, valued, and expected.
2. Identifying your team's learning needs
Move beyond guesswork. Learn practical ways to spot where your educators are thriving, where they're stuck, and what support will actually make a difference for each person.
3. Giving effective feedback
Feedback can build confidence or shut people down — the difference is in how it's delivered. Walk away with techniques for feedback conversations that educators genuinely want to have.
4. Leading learning-focused conversations
Turn everyday check-ins, appraisals, and coaching moments into powerful opportunities for growth, rather than box-ticking exercises.
By the end, you'll have a practical toolkit for building a team that's constantly learning, reflecting, and improving — with the confidence to lead those conversations well.
