Central Bedfordshire Council hosted the Headteacher Wellbeing Conference on 13 February, bringing together school leaders from across the region for a dedicated day focused on mental health, resilience, and sustainable leadership in education.
The conference was designed to support headteachers and senior school leaders in prioritising their own wellbeing as they navigate the increasing pressures of educational leadership. It provided a valuable opportunity for leaders to pause, reflect, and reconnect with what sustains them in their roles.
London Premier Centre (LPC) was proud to contribute to this important initiative as part of our commitment to social responsibility and supporting the wider educational community. Our participation reflects our belief that strong schools are the cornerstone of a strong society — and that supporting school leaders is essential to building healthy, thriving learning environments.
LPC contributed to the preparation and delivery of a full 60-minute keynote session presented by trainer Kasia Bury, titled:

The session introduced Appreciative Inquiry, a rigorous and practical change methodology that shifts the focus from fixing problems to building on strengths. Through interactive High-Point Interviews and exploration of the 4-D Cycle, participants experienced a strengths-based approach to leadership that moves beyond firefighting toward sustainable cultural transformation.
School leaders were also introduced to the SOAR framework, a strengths-based alternative to traditional SWOT analysis, equipping them with actionable tools to empower staff, strengthen engagement, and positively shape school culture starting immediately.
At London Premier Centre, we remain committed to initiatives that create meaningful impact. Supporting educators and school leaders is not only an investment in education, but in the very foundation of our communities.
