School to School Support

School to School Support is one of the key components of the Teaching School initiative. As a Teaching School Alliance we work with many other schools to support specific areas and help with any aspect of school development or improvement. We truly believe that every school can learn from one another for the benefit of all of our children.

As part of that support network, we promote leadership across schools through our Specialist Leaders of Education development programme. You can share your teachers’ expertise and help us to support other schools across a range of specialisms.

If you would like to put forward teachers from your school who have the right qualities and experience to become an SLE, please contact St Polycarp's CTSA by email
