“The Face to Face sessions have been valuable in that there have been opportunities to speak with colleagues in other schools.”

– NPQH Participant

 

“I found the first module quite enlightening and a really positive experience. Being able to meet people at a similar point in their leadership journey has really opened my eyes to things – one of those being that nobody is really the finished article! The reading has been really interesting and made me reflect on certain aspects of my own leadership. A key takeaway has been about the wellbeing of my team(s) and how much more impactful this can be than anything else.”

National Professional Qualification Headteacher (NPQH)

A qualification for school leaders who are, or are aspiring to be, a headteacher or head of school with responsibility for leading a school.

In collaboration with an Expert Advisory Group, the Department of Education consulted extensively with the sector to design the reformed suite of NPQs. This has included invaluable input from teachers, school and trust leaders, academics and experts. The frameworks set out two types of content:

 

‘Learn that…’

Within each area, key evidence statements (“Learn that…”) have been drawn from current high-quality evidence from the UK and overseas. This evidence includes high-quality reviews and syntheses, including meta-analyses and rigorous individual studies. In addition, the NPQ frameworks provide practical guidance on the skills that teachers and school leaders should be supported to develop.

 

‘Learn how to…’

Practice statements (“Learn how to…”) draw on both the best available educational research and on additional guidance from the Expert Advisory Group and other sector representatives.

The Education Endowment Foundation has independently reviewed the frameworks to ensure they draw on the best available evidence and that this evidence has been interpreted with fidelity. The NPQ frameworks will be kept under review as the evidence base evolves. As in any profession, the evidence base is not static and research insights develop and progress.
