The Vision for the East Midlands
In the East Midlands:
 Every child should attend a great school that is judged by Ofsted to be at least ‘good’.
 Continuous improvement is best driven from within the sector by proven, existing outstanding
practitioners.
 Teaching Schools have the expertise, track record, capacity, local knowledge, diversity and passion
to deliver sustainable system-led continuous improvement within and across the region at every
level.
 Teaching Schools are committed to working together, in partnership with a range of stakeholders,
to lead, manage and deliver high quality support based on sound intelligence gathering and
analysis, supportive challenge, strong recruitment and CPD for all the region’s schools.
 Every school in the region should be connected into the system and
engaged as a giver and/or receiver of support.
