The School Leaders Workspace has many pages. On your first visit, this is normal — but it can feel like a lot. We made this page to help you get comfortable, step by step. The language is plain. If a word looks new, you will find it explained in Section 7 — Glossary.
What is Academic Hub?
The portal for partner school leadership — Foundation Representatives / General Managers (FR/GM), School Principals, Academic Coordinators, and Cambridge Coordinators. We use it for the five Academic Services modules — Curriculum, Induction, EASE, Appraisal and Career Growth — and for school-quality work across the network.
What is the School Leaders Workspace?
A group of 7 pages where the leadership team at your school runs the operational week — meetings, decisions, activities, artifacts, plus the directory. The school-scoped counterpart to Eduversal's Coordinators workspace at Central Hub.
🔒 Same-school visibility. Every row this workspace creates carries a
schoolId. Only the leadership team at this school can read it. Other partner schools cannot. An Eduversal admin can — but that is an audit path, not a daily one.
The pages tell one story: meetings raise topics, proposals debate the big ones, decisions make them binding, activities do the work, artifacts anchor it. The directory keeps track of who is in the room.

Directory — the people side
The leadership team at your school. Curated — not auto-synced from the user database — so transitions are reflected immediately. Search by name, subject, or role.
Personal lenses. Three other pages — My Observations, Team Induction, and Weekly Checklist — are your personal views on the same school context. They do not change the flow; they show you your own slice of it.
Each card below tells you four things: what the page is, why we built it, what you will see on day 1, and what to do.
Meetings
/school-leadership-meetings
What it is
Leadership team meeting minutes. Each meeting carries agenda items; items can be tagged decision, action, discussion, announcement, or red-text.
Why we built it
Most school rules start in leadership meetings. Minutes with named actions, owners and due dates are also the evidence the School Appraisal looks for. The Career Growth Framework sets the minimum rhythm: Principal – Academic Coordinator weekly, Principal – Heads of Department every two weeks, department meetings every two weeks, inter-level department meetings every quarter (Career Growth: Framework 26-27 §13). Use the meetings you already have before adding new ones (Minimum Operating Standard 26-27 §9).
Day 1 view
You will see recent meeting minutes for your school. Open the most recent one — the agenda items give you the live context for what is currently being discussed.
What to do
Read the most recent minute. Look at how items are tagged.
- Decision items are recorded in the Decisions register.
- Action items are added once, as tasks in Activities, with an owner and a due date.
- Red-text marks an urgent or sensitive item. Other tags stay as discussion — they shape the context but do not create downstream work.
Proposals (the discussion board)
/school-leadership-proposals
What it is
A discussion board for big ideas your leadership team is still talking about — before anyone decides. "Should we trial a new reading routine in Grade 7?", "Should we move the parent conference to another week?". You open a proposal, write the idea, and the team comments. When everyone agrees, the Principal turns it into a real decision. It sits one step before the Decisions page. A proposal cannot change a network rule — Gradebook weights, EASE rules or appraisal criteria — and a decision that needs governance authority, such as a formal appointment, goes to the FR/GM.
Why we built it
The old way was a shared doc where ideas got lost and you could not tell what stage anything was at. Here every idea has a clear phase and a searchable comment thread, so you always know what is just an idea, what is open for debate, and what has been decided.
The four phases
Each proposal moves left to right. The coloured pill on every card tells you where it is:
- Draft — the author is still writing it. Not yet open for the team.
- Open for comment — the discussion is live. Read it and add your view.
- Decided — agreed and promoted to the Decisions register, with a back-link.
- Parked — shelved for now, kept on the record so it can be re-opened later.
Who can do what
- Any leadership-team member can open a proposal, write the body, and add comments.
- Only the Principal sets the phase (Open / Parked) and promotes a proposal to a binding decision. The team shapes the idea; the Principal makes the call.
- Everything is scoped to your own school — other schools never see your proposals. The page carries a "How proposals work" panel at the top with the full phase legend + roles table.
What to do
Open the Open for comment tab and read what the team is debating. If you have a view, say it in the thread — that is the whole point. New idea worth raising school-wide? Hit "+ New proposal", write the problem, the options, and your recommendation.
Decisions
/school-leadership-decisions
What it is
The auditable register of your school's own rules — "the dress code is X", "Year 7-8 observation feedback rooms have a third person present". Status:
active, draft, or superseded. A school decision puts network policy into practice; it never overrides it (Policy Source-of-Truth Register 26-27).Why we built it
When a school rule changes, the old version must stay visible so new staff understand the history. The supersede-rather-than-edit pattern keeps the trail intact. Auditors (and your future self) can answer "when did this become the rule, and what was the version before".
Day 1 view
Filter by Active. These are the binding rules at your school today. Know them.
What to do
Read the active register once. When a Decision changes, you create a new row that supersedes the old one — never edit a published decision in place. The old row stays visible, marked superseded.
Directory
/school-leadership-directory
What it is
The leadership team at your school. Curated — not auto-synced from the user database — so departures and transitions can be reflected immediately. Search by name, subject, or role.
Why we built it
A team transitions faster than user-account housekeeping. The directory carries the people-side of the workspace; if someone steps down or rotates, the directory reflects it the same day even if their user account stays active for a few weeks longer.
Day 1 view
You will see the current leadership team. Add yourself if you are not present; glance at the other leaders so the names + faces stick.
What to do
Make sure your own entry is correct. If a colleague is missing, add them. If someone has left, mark them inactive — do not delete (the audit trail keeps historical decisions readable).
Artifacts (School Resources)
/school-artifacts
What it is
Links to each department's living documents — the Department Handbook, the Annual Plan (kept in Edunav), the Scheme of Work, lesson plans, internal assessments and intervention plans. Each subject card collects what is current; superseded versions stay archived. Link to the record where it lives; do not upload a second copy (Minimum Operating Standard 26-27 §1).
Why we built it
Decisions + activities are abstract. Artifacts are the concrete things they point to. "Adopt the new SoW for Year 8 Maths" only means something when there is a real document at the end of the link.
Day 1 view
A grid of subject cards. Each card shows what is current. Empty cards mean nothing has been uploaded yet — that is normal for a brand-new term.
What to do
If you are an Academic Coordinator, check that the Department Handbook, Annual Plan and SoW links work for the subjects in your scope — the Subject Leader keeps the Department Handbook current, with your oversight (Curriculum Module: Department Handbook Template 26-27). Other sub-roles: skim only — your daily work usually lives elsewhere.
Activities
/school-activities
What it is
Your school's project board. Create a project, add its tasks and move them across as the work moves. Actions agreed in a meeting are added here by hand.
Why we built it
"What did we decide last meeting?" usually means "what work fell out of last meeting?". The kanban is the answer. Cards carry the meeting + decision they came from, so the lineage is always visible.
Day 1 view
Four columns: Backlog · Doing · Blocked · Done. Cards filter to your school automatically.
What to do
Look at the Doing and Blocked columns. If a card is yours (owner = you), check the deadline. If a card is stale (no movement in 2 weeks), say so in the next meeting.
My Observations
/my-observations
What it is
Your personal lens on formal appraisals + walkthroughs you have submitted as a leader. Submissions written through Teacher Appraisal Entry / Walkthrough Entry land here automatically.
Why we built it
Every teacher in the Teacher Appraisal population is formally observed at least three times per semester by the school's appraisers — Subject Leader / Head of Department, Principal, Academic or Cambridge Coordinator — and the Principal walks through every classroom weekly (Teacher Appraisal: Handbook 26-27). A leader who shares that load should see their own observations in one place. This is that view.
Day 1 view
Empty. Observations populate after you submit them from the Teacher Appraisal / Walkthrough Entry pages.
What to do
Nothing on day 1. Come back once you have completed an observation cycle. Then watch the list grow.
Weekly Checklist
/weekly-checklist
What it is
Your personal lens on the operational rhythm for this week, scoped to your active sub-role. Pairs with the Operational Guide handbook for your role.
Why we built it
Leadership work has a weekly heartbeat. The checklist gives you the same rhythm every week — predictable, simple, with room to skip what is not relevant. It is a soft guide, not a test.
Day 1 view
A per-sub-role tab (Foundation Rep / Principal / Academic Coordinator / Cambridge Coordinator). You see only the tabs matching your sub-roles.
What to do
Friday afternoon — open it, tick what is done, leave the rest for next week. That is the rhythm.
Team Induction
/team-induction
What it is
Teacher Induction at your school (3 semesters per new teacher). As School Principal you assign each new teacher's colleague and an eligible mentor, and you lead the two checkpoints — the Stage 4 Integration Checkpoint and the Final Induction Completion Review. The page shows status, observation write-ups and weekly pulses. It is not a separate tracker: the school's live records are kept by the Teacher Induction Coordinator in the central Induction Control Centre.
Why we built it
New teachers are the highest-risk and highest-leverage group. Two difficult weekly pulses in a row is an Amber flag — follow up with the teacher and the mentor before the programme becomes Red. It is support, never an evaluation.
Day 1 view
If your school has any teachers in Teacher Induction, you will see their induction cards with pulse and observation progress. If not, an empty state.
Confidential
Charter NN2 applies — pulse signals are visible for support. Named individual journal entries are not, unless the teacher chooses to share them. Watch the pulses, not the journals.
This is a soft list, not a test. Tick them off in your head — or your own notes — over the first 5 working days.
1
Day 1 — Open your Weekly Checklist
Pick your role tab (Foundation Rep / Principal / Academic Coordinator / Cambridge Coordinator). Each task links to the live Academic Services document it comes from, and the button at the top opens your role's main document. You do not need to finish — just get the shape.
2
Day 2 — Open the Directory
Add yourself if you are not present. Glance at the other leaders so the names + faces start to stick.
3
Day 3 — Open Meetings
Find the most recent minute. Read the agenda items — that is the live context for what is being discussed right now.
4
Day 4 — Open Decisions
Filter by Active. These are the binding rules at your school. Know them — they shape every day going forward.
5
Day 5 — Open Artifacts
Check that the Annual Plan + SoW links work for the subjects in scope. If something is missing, raise it at the next meeting (and tag the item as action).
6
Ongoing — Friday afternoon = Weekly Checklist
Tick what is done, leave the rest for next week. The checklist is the weekly heartbeat of the leadership rhythm.
The workspace adapts to who you are. The boxes below show only the ones that apply to your sub-role(s) today. They may change later if Eduversal updates your assignment.
This workspace is the operational hub. The wider Academic Hub has many other surfaces — you do not need them all today, but it helps to know they exist.
EASE results, Cambridge dashboards, school appraisals, accreditation, network audit, satisfaction surveys, Rapor Pendidikan 2025 — the dashboard suite under the Dashboards dropdown.
If you are in an induction track — for example a newly appointed Principal — your induction lives here. Principal Induction: Listen → Diagnose → Act → Anchor windows over 12 months (Listen = days 1–90) with an external mentor assigned by Eduversal. New Academic Coordinators and Exams Officers see their own track.
6 leadership domains × 29 competencies anchored in Cambridge School Leader Standards 2023. This is where you reflect on your own growth and keep evidence over time in My Portfolio. It is developmental — not a certificate or a Career Growth level.
Your personal CPD surface — Learning Path (29 leadership skills × 4 stages), My Portfolio (submit evidence), My Progress Record (your progress per domain). Pair with the Competency Framework above.

schoolIdschool binding
A hidden field on your profile that says which partner school you belong to. Every row this workspace creates carries it; the rule layer uses it to enforce same-school visibility. Set by Eduversal, not by you.
Sub-roleon your profile
Your specific leadership lane:
foundation_representative, school_principal, academic_coordinator, or cambridge_coordinator. You can hold more than one.Stage 0in Principal Induction
Pre-arrival preparation, up to 45 days before Day 1 — Eduversal assigns the mentor and assembles the school data pack, and the outgoing principal hands over where possible. The safeguarding gate must be completed before Day 1.
Windowin Principal Induction
One of the four phases of Principal Induction, each about 90 days: Listen (days 1–90), Diagnose (91–180), Act (181–270), Anchor (271–365).
School State Report / 3-Priority School PlanPrincipal Induction deliverables
School State Report (1 page, end of Window 1 — Listen) — top 3 strengths and top 3 concerns heard from staff, parents and students, shared with the mentor and the FR/GM. 3-Priority School Plan (2 pages, end of Window 2 — Diagnose) — three priorities, each named by at least two listening groups and supported by data; reviewed by the mentor and signed off by the FR/GM before it is presented to staff (Induction Module: Principal 26-27 §3).
P1–P8 leadership focus areasPrincipal-only
The eight leadership focus areas used in the Principal's observation visits, 360 and Operating Cadence: P1 Strategic Vision & School Improvement Planning · P2 Instructional Leadership & Curriculum Quality · P3 Managerial & Operational Effectiveness · P4 Quality Assurance & Data-Driven Improvement · P5 Staff Supervision, Development & Wellbeing · P6 Stakeholder & Community Engagement · P7 Compliance, Safeguarding & Governance · P8 Personal Conduct & Professional Presence. Source: Principal Appraisal: Handbook 26-27 §4 and Appraiser Guide 26-27 §5. The Diagnose window includes a self-assessment task against all 8.
Academic DirectorEduversal network role
An Eduversal Primary or Secondary Director. Not your line manager — the Principal reports to the FR/GM. The Chief Academic Officer or a designated Academic Director is the appraiser in the Principal Appraisal and observes the Principal's leadership on 2+ visits a year across P1–P8 (Principal Appraisal: Handbook 26-27). The network academic layer coordinates with schools; it is not a school reporting line (Career Growth: Framework 26-27 §2.4).
Proposalin Proposals
An idea still being discussed — before it becomes a Decision. Moves through four phases: Draft → Open for comment → Decided → Parked. Any leadership-team member can open one and comment; only the Principal sets the phase and promotes it to a binding decision. The deliberation layer that sits before /school-leadership-decisions.
Supersedeaudit-trail discipline
When a Decision changes, you create a new row that supersedes the old one — the old stays visible (marked superseded). Never edit a published decision in place.
Action vs Decisionmeeting-item tags
A meeting item tagged action is added once to Activities as a task with an owner and a due date. A meeting item tagged decision is recorded in the Decisions register.
NN2Charter Non-Negotiable 2
Eduversal never reads named induction journal entries; journal entries stay private unless the teacher chooses to share them. Pulse signals are used for support only. Applies to Team Induction.
Coaching confidentialityframework access rule
Principal Coaching session confidentiality — Foundation Reps are excluded from coaching reads, and coaching content and participation never feed the Principal Appraisal. Coaching stays between the Principal and their coach / mentor. (Principal Appraisal: Handbook 26-27 §10 — not an Induction Charter NN code.)
Artifactin /school-artifacts
A living document the decisions + activities point to. Department Handbook, Annual Plan, SoW, lesson plans, intervention plans. Per subject. Superseded versions stay archived.
Red-textmeeting-item tag
A way to mark an urgent or sensitive item in a meeting. Used sparingly — most items stay tagged as discussion or action. A child-protection concern is never left in the minutes: report it to the Designated Safeguarding Lead immediately.
Pulsein Team Induction
A one-question weekly check ("How was your week?") from teachers in induction. The mentor and the authorised school induction lead can see a teacher's answer for support; Eduversal's network reporting uses aggregate trends. Two hard weeks in a row triggers an Amber support follow-up — care, not surveillance. Pulse data is never used for appraisal.
⚠ Don't share screenshots of student data in feedback. If a bug involves student records, describe the structure of the issue ("attempt N for student M in class X shows wrong score band") without pasting names or IDs. The feedback collection is admin-readable.
