Headroom: Headteacher Support Series

BEP Mental Health & Wellbeing
3 hours x 5 sessions Starting Friday 14th March 2025

Over the course of 5 face to face sessions with a combination of psycho-education and self-development activities alongside opportunities for reflective supervision within a small group, Headroom is aimed at Heads wanting to develop insight into their own leadership style and process and explore what this means for looking after themselves in their role, school development and change.


The sessions will be led by Anna Robinson. Anna is a UKCP accredited Integrative Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor and also works as BEP’s Mental and Emotional Health Lead. Anna has experience of working across health, social care, education and the voluntary sector with hard to reach, marginalised and high-risk groups. This range of multi agency, and multi-cultural experience has meant that she is able to hold the attention of education leaders and speak from a grounded place of knowing in order to support and deliver change. Anna also teaches on a Masters programme for trainee psychotherapists. She knows therefore how important relationships and collaboration are to making lasting change. The combination of her ability to offer accessible and relevant psychoeducation, grounded in a wider systems perspective is helpful to schools not only to making strategic change but also in managing the anxieties that those leading in schools can experience.


This programme will be very interactive and we ask you to come with an open, inquiring mind and a willingness to stretch your reflective muscles within a confidential group setting. School leadership is often like facing a two-headed monster – the powerlessness to manage demands of accountability and performance alongside the increasingly challenging and even violent behaviours of some children and young people in school. Headship is a demanding role with intensive personal interactions that are often publicly displayed. How do we work to “befriend” the two-headed monster in order to preserve our energy and passion for the work that we do?
