"I recently joined the school improvement service as a senior education advisor. Right from the start I was made to feel really welcome and supported, both professionally and personally by the team. I had a detailed induction programme which has taken me through all the key pieces of information I needed to know alongside a bespoke shadowing programme where I was able to accompany other advisors to gain a better understanding of how school visits work, with a particular focus on some areas of school I was less familiar with from my previous roles. I think the thing that has struck me most during these first few weeks is how open and helpful the team are. There is always someone available to answer the ‘how?’ or ‘what?’ questions that come up when settling into a new role."
