Meet our Middle Leadership Team 

The Education Team Leaders (ETLs) are part of the curriculum leadership team. The ETLs share an unwavering passion for teaching and learning at West Kirby School and College. They have built strong curriculum teams that focus on delivering, ensuring the best possible outcomes for the pupils.

As the 'middle leadership team', they are the ‘engine room’ of the school. The team meet weekly to moderate all aspects of teaching and learning at West Kirby School and College to ensure parity and progression in each curriculum area and feed back to SLT.
