Welcome

Hello! And what a term that was! Here at the Julian TSH we've delivered 6 briefings, 8 conferences, 17 clinics, and a whopping 37 NPQ sessions over the last thirteen weeks - and we'd like to say a HUGE thank you to our wider team of facilitators who make that kind of schedule possible.

We'd also like to thank you - our schools, leaders, participants and friends - for all of your support in 2023. We love what we do, and we couldn't do it without you.

From all of us at the Julian TSH, we hope you have a relaxing break and a happy and healthy new year.

Sarah, Ben, Kate, Lucy, Susi, Jenifer, and Maya x

Spotlight on... Our blog!

You may have noticed that we've added a section to our newsletters highlighting recent posts on our blog. After leaving the page dormant for several years, we've reinvigorated it with the series How I Use... and several longer-form case studies that we've conducted with individuals and schools.

We plan on updating the blog regularly, so do keep checking in - and don't forget that we also publish shorter news stories frequently too. Keep up to date by visiting our website and following us on X and LinkedIn.

Check out the blog.


Focus on... January starters

Thank you to those schools that have let us know they have ECTs starting their induction in January 2024 - we hope to have everything up and running for your participants by the new year.

If your school has an ECT starting induction in January and hasn't yet let us know, there's still time. Drop us an email and we'll let you know what you have to do.

Please bear in mind that if you haven't worked with us before, we need to set up a partnership between us, your school, and our Lead Provider, so expect a few days' delay.

Find out more about the ECT induction programme here.

And finally...

On New Year’s Eve, Sunday Worship on BBC Radio 4 at 8.10am will feature Norwich Cathedral Choir leading a Reflection on the Life of our namesake Julian of Norwich, marking the end of this 650th anniversary year of Julian receiving her sixteen showings.
