Brooke Weston Partnership

A message from the Executive Principal

The Brooke Weston Partnership is a response to today's climate where leadership and management of secondary schools is becoming more complex and challenging. Recognising the benefits to be gained by collaboration the partnership brings together a number of schools each with its own principal but operating under the leadership of an 'executive principal'.

The 'executive principal' will oversee the management of the schools in the group and the developing relationship between them. As the members of a family might have different strengths, interests and achievements so the schools in the Brooke Weston partnership will have different specialisms and priorities. The partnership will be a strong coalition of schools each led by a principal committed to the success of their own school but each anxious to commit to the success of the others; principals who will compete but collaborate; who will be delighted with the success of their own school but equally pleased with the success of their sister schools. A supportive network of institutions sharing common values the foundation of these being that it is the interests of the students rather than institutional convenience that will always have priority.
