From School Leadership to System Leadership Towards the school-led, self-improving system…

The problem… Only 50% of our 15 year-olds can answer the bicycle question! We need 80% to be able to answer it.

20 years ago…we were at the bottom…

But we have climbed steadily…

We enjoy the achievement…

But we were only at base camp…

English National System - Second half of 20th Century National Government School Local Authorities (x 130)

English National System - Direction of travel since 1990 National Government Academies (x 20,000)

English National System - the future? National Government Academy Multi – Academy Trusts x 1000? Regional Headteacher Boards/Regional Commissioners x 8 Academy

The future? Regional Headteacher Boards 8 regions, each with an elected Board of 6-8 Headteachers and a Regional Schools’ Commissioner Roles: monitor academy performance and prescribe intervention in underperforming academies take decisions on the creation of new academies and who should run them ensure that there are enough high-quality school sponsors to meet local need; take decisions on changes to age ranges, mergers and changes to multi-academy trusts

The future? Multi-Academy Trusts (MATs) MATs are charitable companies Ideally, responsible for between 3 and 20 schools Sign a contract for 7 years with the Minister for Education to run their schools Governed by a Board of Directors of 8 -12, with expertise ideally including law and finance as well as education Each individual school has a Local Governing Body, which is actually a sub-committee of the MAT Board of Directors MAT central functions – CEO, HR, Finance, ICT, School Improvement

The future? The national framework National Curriculum – but very light touch and more of an expectation than a legal requirement National Funding Formula with most funding simply following the child National examination system with all results published and raw results analysed by pupil progress National inspection system – Ofsted – high stakes

The future? Who is responsible for school performance? Each school’s Headteacher is responsible to the MAT Board of Directors for their own school’s results Each MAT is responsible for the results of all its schools

The future? Who is responsible for dealing with un under-performance? MAT would be expected to intervene robustly if one of its schools is under-performing, which could include: Appoint new Governors Replace the Headteacher and/or senior staff Bring in external expert help Redeploy staff from other schools in the MAT

The future? Who is responsible for dealing with un under-performance? If it is the MAT itself which is underperforming, not able to support or improve its schools: Regional Schools’ Commissioner would intervene The MAT could be taken over by another MAT Schools in the MAT could be moved to a variety of other MATs

The future? Who is responsible for support for underperforming schools? ‘Teaching Schools’ are central to this: 600 across England (1 per 30 schools) Train teachers – not Universities any more Provide ‘school to school support’ to address weakness Develop ‘Subject Leaders in Education ‘ to provide specialist support to schools Carry out research Succession planning for school leadership Continuing Professional Development – on-going training

The future? Summary Minimal central government control Key roles for Regional Headteacher Boards Maximum freedom for individual MATs: Curriculum Hiring and firing staff – do not need to be qualified Timing of the school day/school year Salary scales Very high levels of accountability – exam results & Ofsted Fast, robust intervention if there is underperformance
