Educational leadership development support

Description

The Trust is looking to obtain interest from providers who may partner with us in developing our Head of School, and similar, leadership roles within the Trust. Potentially working with up to 13 leaders to provide a series of support opportunities to enable cultural alignment and re-establish standards, attitudes and expectations. It is expected this would, over the 2022/23 academic year (September 2022 to July 2023), be through the provision of c.11 one-to-one coaching/mentoring sessions with each participant. Lot 1: The Trust is looking to obtain interest from providers who may partner with us in developing our Head of School, and similar, leadership roles within the Trust. Potentially working with up to 13 leaders to provide a series of support opportunities to enable cultural alignment and re-establish standards, attitudes and expectations. It is expected this would, over the 2022/23 academic year (September 2022 to July 2023), be through the provision of c.11 one-to-one coaching/mentoring sessions with each participant. Supporting the programme would be the potential need for: • pre-programme briefing with Trust leadership to identify the focus of annual activity • initial launch of programme event with participants as a group • the ongoing one-to-one sessions between the provider and the participants • summarised group information, for key themes, to be shared with Trust leadership to support the programme The Trust would anticipate a rate card for services, for instance, whether coaching delivered in 60/90/120 minute sessions online or face to face, optional additional workshops or debriefing sessions, and for any optional additional services such as psychometric profiling to support the programme. This rate card would be used to estimate the total engagement cost, dependent on the options selected. It would be expected that the provider would be able to demonstrate suitable professional qualifications and experience of its team who would meet the contract. Experience within the educational space for developing educational leaders is a critical requirement. Our schools are based in East London, Essex, and Northamptonshire. If face to face sessions are required, these will take place at the individual schools. At the end of the academic year, the impact on participants through contract execution will be assessed and may result in the renewal of provision for up to a further two years.
