National School Business Leaders' Day - Friday June 10th 2022
National awareness day coming up to recognise and celebrate the achievements of School Business Leaders.
Celebrated on June 10th, School Business Services has created the National School Business Leaders' Day to recognise the incredible contribution School Business Leaders (SBLs) make to their schools and the wider community. National School Business Leaders’ Day and the lead up to it, will focus on the vital role SBLs play and recognise the amazing way that they have championed and supported one other.
We'd love to see all SBLs at the event!
Activities in the run-up to and on Friday June 10th 2022 will include:
- Celebration event, including guest speakers Martine Wright and Action Jackson
- Give and receive #SBLKudos
- Partner competitions
- Goodie bags
Give kudos to a deserving SBL
Senior leaders and school staff are encouraged to leave their own #SBLKudos message for someone. Whether that’s supporting emerging practitioners, thanking peers that mentor other SBLs, or stories of specific achievements and ingenious solutions.
Submissions will be displayed on our live feed and via the SBS Twitter.
We salute everything SBLs do for their schools, especially in the last twelve months which have arguably been the toughest in the history of education. In addition to championing the profession we’re hoping to raise awareness of courageous leadership in and out of the sector. We would really value sector support and help to pause, reflect and celebrate the talent and achievements within school business leadership.
