Commenting as Welsh Government publish their Independent Review of Leadership, alongside a written ministerial statement from the Minister for Education, Laura Doel, director of school leaders’ union NAHT Cymru, has called for an immediate full-scale review of the consortia in Wales.
“This independent report confirms what our members have been telling us and in turn what we have told the Welsh Government – leadership support in Wales is inconsistent and, in some areas, woefully lacking,” said Ms Doel.
“School leaders are consumed by driving forward the government’s ambitious reform agenda, having to support their teams with new curriculum development; guide the school through the new ALN legislation and support learners in teaching, learning and exams.
