Strategic Partners
Working with the very best leaders across the Leeds city region
We are building a formidable team and a range of exciting partnerships from the highest performing schools in the city. Those strategic partners bring wide ranging expertise and experience to our work as a hub and will also act as our delivery partners for the Early Career Framework and National Professional Qualification suite.
We are committed to inviting new partners and strategic partners to our work in the months and years to come as we take forward the realisation of our vision.
