• To learn from and mobilise expertise across a wide spectrum of subjects, phases, contexts and types of education.
• To provide a high quality ‘golden thread’ of professional learning entitlements and opportunities to teachers and leaders at all career stages.
• To recruit outstanding new entrants to the teaching profession, providing them with the highest quality training and retaining them to meet local recruitment demands.
• To ensure that our most talented people are given leadership opportunities which will strengthen schools and create future capacity.
