Introducing the LLE pilot

About the SW Pilot

What’s the Role of a LLE

Are you already a LLE?

What are the Eligibility Criteria?

What are the opportunities for LLEs?
How has this come about?

The school-led self-improving education system

National College and DfE are supporting change by 2016,
with a shift towards teaching schools through the teaching
school council

A system with tiers of system leadership (SLE, LLE, NLE)

Intends to test the concept of devolving LLE delivery to
teaching school alliances through 9 two-year pilot projects
across England

There are two pilot projects across the south west

To develop a national model for designation and deployment
from 2016

What does our LLE Pilot look like?
 Designation – developing robust processes and QA for application,
interview, selection and designation
 Training and induction – developing accessible, comprehensive
programmes to ensure that LLEs are equipped for high impact
school-to-school support
 Access to LLEs – developing central register for LLEs allowing schools
to identify suitable LLE partners
 Commissioning and Deployment – developing standardised
commissioning and deployment processes across phase for high
quality targeted support with measurable outcomes & robust
evaluation
 Monitoring and QA – to evaluate the success of the pilot with NCTL
The Role of a LLE
 Where might deployment come
from?
 What does deployment involve?
Already an LLE?
How can you contribute to the Pilot if you are already
designated?
The Pilot will not:
 be re-designating or de-designating existing LLEs
The Pilot will:






be Learning from experienced LLEs to contribute to the new model
help to shape the new model for local system leadership
give access to CPD and training for LLEs
contribute to training and induction of new LLEs
introduce LLEs to teaching school alliances across the SW
give potential for more deployment in future
Interested in becoming an LLE?
To be eligible to be a local leader of education, you
must:

have at least 3 years of experience as a serving headteacher

have an Ofsted rating of good

expect to remain at your current school for at least 2 years after being
selected

have accountability for one or more school(s) that meet the criteria
below

have the support of your school’s governing body and local authority or
a senior educational professional

demonstrate that you have sufficient experience providing support as a
coach or mentor to another headteacher or senior member of staff at a
school other than your own

commit to the time expectations
Criteria for your school
For you to be considered as a local leader of education, your current
school must:

have an Ofsted rating of good

show consistently high levels of pupil performance or continued
improvement over the last 3 years

be above current minimum standards set by the government

have experienced senior leaders with capacity to work with other
schools

If you are applying as a sixth form college, you must be able to show
evidence of supporting maintained schools in addition to any support
provided to sixth form colleges.
Criteria for Independent Schools
Notes for independent school applicants
If your school is not inspected by Ofsted, it must be judged as good
by the Independent Schools Inspectorate in the areas of:

leadership and management

quality of pupils’ achievements

pupils’ personal development

Alternatively, if the school is inspected by Ofsted, then the school
must be judged good for overall effectiveness, capacity to
improve and leadership and management or equivalent.

Minimum standards are not applicable to independent schools.
Independent schools will have to show consistently high levels of
performance or continued improvement over the last 3 years.
Where might the school to school support
work for LLEs come from?

Client school self-identifying need

Local Authority

Diocese

Ofsted HMI

DfE Academies and Underperformance Group

Teaching School Alliances

NLEs/other system leaders

Governing Bodies

NCTL

Academy Chains
And there are many possible scenarios…

Client school self-identifies an area of need in their
school/academy.

HMI recommends that a school that has recently been given
a judgment of RI seeks support.

A local authority identifies that a school has diminished
capacity for leadership and support is needed for an Acting
HT.

A national academy chain needs to add leadership capacity
in a recently sponsored school.

A newly appointed HT requests a whole school diagnostic to
confirm the context of their school.

A Teaching School Alliance has successfully bid for NLE
deployment funding of £15K to support three schools.

A remote, rural school requires support and there is no local
capacity.
