New models of governance and leadership for 14-19 provision in challenging localities
Cumbria 14-19 Strategic Partnership, Cumbria
Cumbria's field trial began by testing out different approaches to the leadership, management and governance of coherent 14-19 provision across three geographically different parts of Cumbria - Eden, Carlisle and Furness. Each selected area faced a different mix of challenges, including falling rolls and widely dispersed populations. Building on the work of the 14-19 Pathfinder, with the Local Authority intimately involved in the initiation, but transferring responsibility to the localities, the governance and leadership models explored include a trust and a company limited by guarantee.
Increasingly the work is focusing on developments in Furness where, following use of The Bridge Change Leadership Framework, there is growth from the 14-19 Partnership to a wider Learning Partnership with a holistic vision for educational provision for all children in Furness, and the creation of a Trust, brokering alliances with local business, to sponsor an academy.
