Over the past year I've been putting together some thoughts on what makes a CS department work well and where things quietly drift.
 
The result is a free guide: Eight Questions Every CS Department Should Be Asking.
 
These are my own thoughts, shaped from years working with CS departments and working with schools through CodeBash. Some of it will be obvious, no doubt. Some of it might be the thing you've been meaning to say out loud for a while.
 
It's aimed at anyone in a CS department, not just HoDs. If you're a classroom teacher who has a view on how things are going, it'll hopefully land just as well.
 
Eight questions. Eight concrete actions. A self-assessment you can use with your team and plan for next year.
