Local authority approaches to school education

While there were many good elements, the report outlined some significant challenges, including:

inconsistent support provided to schools, both within and across local authorities
self-evaluation processes, which are not always rigorous
an inconsistent approach to leadership development, which can impact on continuous improvement

The Committee wants to understand how local authorities are responding to the report.

It is also interested in how local authorities are sharing good practice with each other.
