Leadership and management

There is a culture of working creatively and meeting challenges resourcefully within the authority, with innovative responses at times. Leaders are willing to trial new ideas and are keen to create an organisation that is progressive when it comes to important issues that align with their core priorities and principles. Good examples of these innovations include the development of an internal system for tracking information about pupils and their robust and measured response to the crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic. On the whole, leaders encourage their staff, schools and key partners to use their strengths and expertise to create unique solutions to deal with local issues, which demonstrate the principles and willingness of leaders to try and to take sensible risks.
