Description

Northern Education Trust is a multi-academy trust (MAT), made up of 11 primary academies and 10 secondary, which are located from Northumberland to Greater Manchester. The Trust employs a total of 1,715 employees.

We established the Northern Education Trust Staff College (NETSC) 18 months ago to provide outstanding training and professional development opportunities across a number of disciplines for the educational sector.

As part of the NETSC offer we often work with academies, schools and stakeholders external to the Trust to offer leadership guidance, support and school improvement in all phases of education.

We are now looking to appoint a provider who can both formally accredit the school improvement impact of existing leaders, and market those leaders to the education sector as a whole.

Our model of school improvement includes a commitment to network development and system leadership and we are hopeful that this project will give further stature and confidence to interested parties of leaders' ability to provide exceptional support and rapid school improvement.

We are proposing a 2 year contract with a capped maximum value of £20,000. The preferred provider to NET will be required to promote their accreditation at their risk with no payments made if senior leaders choose not to apply.
