Review of Quality Improvement 23
What we think are ‘MUST DO’s in any future delivery model: Commitment to developing capacity/leadership across the system through CLPL, joint practice, networks, cluster, working and partnership working. Focused and proportionate response to support and challenge which leads to (impact) improved outcomes for all learners. Clarity through strategic plan outlining clear priorities informed by rigorous self evaluation and evidence based approaches. Getting/developing the right leaders with the right skills to create the most effective team. Review of Quality Improvement 24
What we think are ‘Shooting For’ in any future delivery model: Develop an excellent teaching profession in City of Edinburgh Develop highly effective leadership. Further develop school and centre self-evaluation within learning communities Review of Quality Improvement 25
Possible future models of delivery: Important not to rush to models without consideration of our purpose and statutory responsibilities Considerations: neighbourhood model sector model School groups model HT leading school groups model Education officer role combining school functional management issues with issues of quality of education Review of Quality Improvement 26
