2
Why is a change management strategy needed?
  • BSF involves radical solutions, innovation and
    paradigm shifts in terms of learning, teaching,
    curriculum and school organisation
  • Significant change is an inevitable consequence
  • Change is threatening
  • A lot of stakeholders will be affected
  • The change journey will have to be managed
    strategically
  • We have to plan structural and cultural change

What should the change management strategy do ?
(1/2)
  • Build leadership capacity for transformation
    within and across schools and within the LA
  • Provide a clear framework to guide the work of
    schools, teams and individuals
  • Seek not to improve but to transform learning and
    outcomes
  • Energise, empower and give confidence to leaders
    of change (to be innovative, radical and take
    (managed) risks)

5
What should the change management strategy do
? (2/2)
  • Develop skills, knowledge, qualities and
    attitudes that support new work practices
  • Identify innovative use of new technologies
  • Ensure schools are intelligent / expert clients
    for services
  • Encourage the LEP as a key partner in change
    management to achieve KPIs

10 change management key messages
  • BSF is a change programme, not a building
    programme. Buildings do not bring about change.
    Change management is the key to transformation
  • We need to recognise when it is appropriate to
    change. Change management begins now
  • It needs to be long term and sustainable. We need
    to build capacity for the leadership of change
  • Resources will be needed to support the change
    programme. Existing planning and delivery
    resources and partnerships need to be aligned
  • Change management strategies and plans need to
    address behavioural/cultural change as well as
    organisational/structural change. schools, as
    organisations, are the result of combined
    influences

10 change management key messages
  • Change is an emotional journey. It is threatening
    and fundamentally disruptive. This needs to be
    planned for. All stakeholders need to be clear
    about why change is needed
  • We need to plan for different target groups.
    Within each group there will be sub-groups, at
    different stages of readiness to change
  • Change management is more than (but embraces)
    CPD, workforce reform, ITT, school improvement
    planning, leadership development
  • The impact of the change programme will need to
    be monitored and evaluated. There is a
    relationship between change management plans,
    KPIs and performance management arrangements
  • 10. LA and individual schools change strategies
    need to be aligned but they are not set in
    stone change management plans cannot be fixed
    they change!
