An Up Learn Deputy Champion is a key supporting role, often a classroom teacher or middle leader. They help keep the momentum going and ensure Up Learn becomes a natural part of your school's academic culture.
What does a Deputy Champion do?
Deputy Champions work closely with the main Champion and your School Success Manager. They help to:
🚀 Support daily use: Help staff and students with questions and setup, while stepping in for your Champion when needed
📈 Promote engagement: Encourage consistent usage and help staff see how Up Learn fits into their subject
📣 Share insights: Provide feedback on what's working (or not) to help refine strategy
Why does being a Deputy Champion matter?
While Champions lead the overall strategy, Deputies often bring it to life on a practical level. When these two roles collaborate, schools benefit from both leadership direction and on-the-ground action.
For the Deputy Champion, it's a fantastic chance to:
🌟 Develop leadership experience
🌟 Get involved in school-wide initiatives
🌟 Take ownership of something that truly impacts students
🌟 Potentially grow into a Champion role or even build a case for a TLR in the future
In short, Deputy Champions are the difference-makers who help turn a good Up Learn implementation into a great one!
