School Improvement leadership role

The Education People aim to be the most forward-looking company for education services, supporting provision so that all young people have the best opportunities to learn, develop and achieve. Every child should be able to go to a good or outstanding school, college and post 16 provision and have access to the best teaching.

The importance of sustainability of quality education and skills is second to none: catering for the needs of the future generation and ensuring that young people are supported by outstanding provision with a breadth of opportunities available to them to enable them to grow.

Due to the high demand for our outstanding services, The Education People are expanding our School Improvement and Skills & Employability team and have vacancies for School Improvement leadership roles.
