description
Two different strands of this project which use different methodologies.
Strand 1 - Qualitative interviews in 10 local authority areas. These will include a range of leaders from each local system through one-to-one interviews and small-group workshops. The interviews will provide a rounded view on the role of each local authority because the sample won't solely include LA staff (elected members, senior local authority officers and heads of service) but also school leaders (including MATs), governors, and diocese education officers.
Strand 2 - Survey of local authorities
A survey of local authorities (completed by the head of education or someone similar) to "test" or further validate the key findings from the qualitative work. This will allow us to understand how strongly the findings from the 10 LA areas studied in depth resonate with the rest of the country
The deliverables will be a presentation of the findings and a full report suitable for external publication.
