We’re delighted to have been selected as a supporting organisation for the Department for Education’s new RISE programme and are especially proud to be one of the few non-trust organisations selected, reflecting the strength of a collaborative education system where multi-academy trusts, maintained school leaders, and area-based partnerships all play a vital role in raising standards and supporting schools.

Our colleagues Anne Peck, Director of Education Services (Primary and Early Years) and Liz Shapland Director of Education Services (Secondary, Special and AP) were recently invited to attend DfE RISE roundtables on Reception year quality and attainment respectively. Penny Slater, Education Development and Partnership Lead at HFL also attended an East of England RISE event and was privileged to facilitate a session on effective KS2-3 transition, led by headteachers Philip Newbery and Ced de la Croix from Scholars’ Education Trust.
