@EducationEACT Hear from @EducationEACT's CEO, Tom Campbell, as he shares how their collaborative model and evidence-driven strategies are delivering improvement

@EducationEACT (7) These proxies, from book counts to pupil premium registration, help leaders react quickly and keep improvement momentum going.

@EducationEACT (6) @EducationEACT also uses proxy measures to track progress. “If we close the word gap, we can expect their reading and writing to start to get to national average. And we can expect children in secondary to start moving through towards grade four, grade five at GCSE.”.

@EducationEACT (5) Boards have influenced trust-wide priorities, from safeguarding systems to targeted reading programmes, while allowing flexibility where local needs differ.

@EducationEACT (4) Leaders work together in boards to shape strategy and share best practice. “We see those that are the most engaged performing the best by any measure. And where we’ve got schools that are stubbornly stuck, it’s often because they haven’t engaged as much.”.

@EducationEACT (3) “The key part of the behavioural economics is to accept that we need to give voice to the experts in schools. We need to create conditions for experts to thrive and collaborate and learn from each other. Then we’re really unlocking scale as a strength.”.

@EducationEACT (2) “We have a real tangible activism element: a real commitment to levelling up and advocating for children with SEND from the most disadvantaged backgrounds.” – Tom Campbell, CEO, @EducationEACT.
