Business & Government

Businesses can benefit significantly from working with education, whether through staff feeling empowered and motivated from gaining interim management expertise, acquiring insights into educational agendas and challenges or through supporting the local community school as part of a corporate social responsibility initiative. Either way, you’ll be supporting the next generation of employees and business leaders.

Stretch Assignments businesses and public sector organisations invite senior leaders and teachers to complete a secondment, giving school staff a greater depth of understanding about workplace issues, cross sector benchmarks and leadership beyond the school walls. Businesses often utilise teachers’ specialist knowledge to support key projects or to help their employees gain a better insight into the world of education. The Secondment Almanac 2 is now available to download, this shows examples of Stretch assignments over 25 years.

Take 5 Managers from business and the public sector give five days to support a school or college leadership team with a particular project or management issue. School leadership teams benefit from the consultancy style input and business managers learn from the experience and are left feeling motivated and energised by adding great value in just 5 days. Ultimately, this improves the running of schools which in turn benefits students’ life chances and improves the employability of the next generation.

Strategic Forum encourages dialogue and partnership between senior leaders in education, business and public services through regular dinners and events to debate 21st century education, skills and employability challenges. These sessions can help businesses identify new opportunities and may even influence education policy.
