Group discussion is a particularly important aspect of this course\, enabling delegates to look at the theory in light of their own practical experience.

The course is run by senior members of the BSA staff and will feature a serving Head of a boarding school and each delegate will have an experienced BSA Tutor who attends the study days. \nCourse Assessment \nAll delegates undertake a SWOT analysis of the boarding provision in their school in which they evaluate\, in detail\, different aspects and contribute towards the development of the provision. From this they undertake three assignments. The first highlights an area for development and they follow this with a 4-minute presentation delivered to the BSA staff and tutors\, as well as other delegates. The final assignment brings together all the work in a 3\,000- 4\,000 word active research project. \nApplications:\nBSA Diploma in Boarding Practice – Leadership \nTO BEING YOU QUALIFICATION IN AUTUMN CLICK HERE \nBSA Autumn Diploma in Boarding Practice – Leadership \n\n\n\nDay 1: November 17th  2026\nDay 2: March 9th \, 2027\nDay 3: May 19th\, 2027\n\n\n\nNumbers on Diploma courses will be limited.
