We are thrilled to announce that our 30th anniversary CISC Conference 2020 will be in Glasgow on 16 and 17 January at the Hilton Grosvenor Hotel. CISC will be taking over the whole hotel (a CISC first I believe!) which sits in the West End of Glasgow, alongside the botanical gardens and across the way from the University of Glasgow. It is a wonderful hotel and, I hope, will afford a much more bespoke and personal conference for you all.

The theme of the conference ‘The Pearl of Great Price’ symbolises the ‘why’ and the ‘how’ of our schools whose identity and ethos are rooted in the fundamental understanding that our educational imperative is to give life to the full to all members of our school communities. And this fullness of understanding comes through encounter with God, intellectually morally and spiritually.

We are delighted to announce the programme of guest speakers and workshops:

Keynote Speakers

Dame Alison Peacock, Chief Executive of the Chartered College of Teaching

Dame Alison Peacock is an educationalist who, despite her leading national and international role in education, has never lost the perspective of the classroom teacher and school leader. As such, in her current role she celebrates pedagogy and encourages meaningful collaborations between researchers and teachers that give pupils the best opportunities that education affords.  Dame Alison will set our conference off with a vibrant, engaging and sincere exploration of the value of education and the common good.

Professor Sir Harry Burns: former Chief Medical Officer for Scotland and professor of global public health at the University of Strathclyde

Professor Sir Harry Burns has had a distinguished career in medicine and healthcare. An alumnus of our host school, St Aloysius, his career has been marked by a commitment to social welfare and the common good.  As Chief Medical Officer for Scotland he emphasised the importance of the early years as a basis for health and wellbeing in adulthood.  Sir Harry will share insights into how the formative aspect of his years at St Aloysius and ‘the wearing o’ the green blazer’ have informed his career choices and achievements.

Richard Hester and CISC Working with Your Governing Body

2:20pm – 3:05pm

Governing bodies in independent catholic schools typically contribute much, through professional skills and experience, in terms of setting strategic direction, creating robust accountability and ensuring financial probity, and crucially Catholic ethos.  Research has confirmed the importance of good relationships between governors and heads, and especially within the chair-headteacher relationship.   In this workshop, Richard will share and explore best practice in facilitating this critical relationship, the outcome of which will be the development of an audit for good governance in CISC schools.
