Colin Scott started his career in 1992 as a secondary classroom teacher in the north east of England and over a series of promotions in a different schools reached headship in 2016. Before becoming a teacher, he served as an engineer in the Royal Navy and during his first twenty years of teaching he also worked part time as a Special Constable with Northumbria Police, understanding communities and families better from outside of a school environment. He trained initially as a Section 10 Team inspector in the early 2000’s but retrained into Section 5 (and Section 8) inspections in 2012. Colin led inspections as a lead inspector over 6 years ending his connection in 2020 during the covid lockdowns. He has a good understanding of how inspection teams work, the training inspectors undergo, and has trained colleagues across north east schools to understand that inspections do not need to be stressful and that leaders are able to manage the inspections collegiately with teams when they descend on school. Colin became the first UK State Secondary Headteacher to publicly come out as a gay man to his community in 2022 making national and international headlines following the ‘revelation’.
This course is about helping school colleagues to understand that they can influence and shape any inspection armed with the right knowledge and tools to answer all challenges presented to them with evidence. Inspections can often be at the behest of a subjective opinion as opposed to an objective one. This course should enable headteachers and school senior colleagues to better understand their ability to convey confidence, resilience, and knowledge about their school to the team who have a limited timeframe in which to reach that judgement. A judgement which could have profound impact on all staff within a school and the community it serves.
