Policy Briefings

Stakeholder
Briefings

We regularly conduct surveys and roundtables on the key issues and challenges our schools are facing in order to ensure that the voices of North East school leaders are heard as widely as possible.

Our Stakeholder Briefings are designed to share this feedback with influential figures within the education sector, to help them understand the detail of what our schools are facing.
