Leadership Partners

Are you looking for a SIP or new School Improvement Partner for 2023-2024?

ECM Education currently provides a full range of support services for schools locally, nationally, and internationally. 

ECM understands that effective school leadership is critical in improving educational outcomes, promoting high expectations and meeting the rigorous demands of Ofsted and the DfE. Our Leadership Partners support and strengthen leadership at all levels, empowering headteachers, governors and senior leaders to build leadership capacity, deliver whole-school improvement, secure better teaching and learning, and manage complex organisations more effectively.

Leadership Partners

An ECM Leadership Partner can work alongside school leaders and staff to provide a wide range of bespoke guidance, support, coaching and training opportunities. ECM Leadership Partners will work with leaders to identify the school’s needs and implement strategies to improve school effectiveness and pupil outcomes.

ECM can work with schools to co-design a single consultancy day to address a specific need e.g., support with writing part of the school’s self-evaluation summary or can build a package of Leadership Partner days for the school across the year. The focus for each visit is based around the school’s identified needs and can include external validation of the school’s improvement work.

We can provide support in ways that suit you. We offer:

  • Full day support - 6 hours in school or 5 hours in school and a Note of Visit, recording strengths and areas for development
  • Half day support in school - 3 hours
  • We also offer a detailed report with your judgements validated as well as a shorter Note of Visit

Our consultants can also support governors and headteachers in applying their appraisal systems effectively. Our consultants can support all staff members meeting your school's individual needs.

We are keen to provide the support necessary for schools to provide the best outcomes for pupils.
