Project Impact Evaluation Post for the WG Lead and Emerging Practitioner Project

Descriptions

The Welsh Government is funding a national school-to-school improvement strategy to raise standards by matching Lead Practitioner Schools with Emerging Practitioner Schools. The project has been developed in partnership with the four regional consortia in Wales. The aim of the Lead and Emerging Practitioner School Pathfinder is to raise primary and secondary school standards by enabling school-to-school support, with the aim to accelerate improvement. The purpose of the Pathfinder is to establish and evaluate the effectiveness of a school improvement model whereby schools identified as underperforming are supported by schools already demonstrating excellent practice and outcomes. The Welsh Government wishes to commission a contractor to undertake an evaluation which will inform the future development of school improvement strategies in Wales.
