Schools across the North East started the new term positively, with good attendance and students who are happy and keen to learn. School leaders have, so far, been able to maintain the confidence of students, parents and staff, however this is being threatened by extensive issues with the system for testing.

Just before the summer break Schools North East made the exciting announcement that we would be launching a new network for School Business Professionals working in special schools and alternative provision, across the country. We were delighted to be commissioned by the Department for Education to deliver this, and pleased that we are able to drive this national network from the North East.

Questions for the Department for Education took place in the House of Commons on Monday, covering a range of issues such as school finances, the impact of the Covid-19 lockdown, the awarding of exam grades, as well as questions around higher education.
