Apprenticeships for non-teaching staff

Our commitment in leadership development is to the flourishing of adults, not just teachers. Whilst the golden thread of ITT-ECF-NPQ has enabled thousand of teachers to engage in professional development, nearly half of the employees in our schools are not teachers. We have therefore partnered with a group of FE and HE apprenticeship providers to bring about a pilot programme of apprenticeships (between Level 3 and 6) for school trusts in our Flourishing Trusts Network.
