Aspirant Directors of Children’s Service Programme

The National College for Leadership of Schools and Children’s Services is launching the Aspirant Directors of Children’s Services (DCS) Programme this summer. The College intends to make 40 places available on the programme and is inviting applicants to register their interest. A key aim of the programme is to ensure that there is a strong and reliable pipeline of talented individuals drawn from across the children and young people’s workforce (which includes the voluntary and community youth sector) who are ready to make the step up to the DCS role. http://www.nationalcollege.org.uk/index/professional-development/dcs-aspirant-leadership-programme.htm
