Who are Challenge Partners and what do they do?

Challenge Partners is an education charity, led by practitioners, through which schools collaborate to improve each other and the education system as a whole, so all children benefit.

We work with schools across the country, and focus on school improvement, leadership development and knowledge exchange. Our programmes are grounded in evidence of what works, regular quality assurance, and sharing the collective wisdom in our schools. 

The schools in our network get great results: boosting exam and progress scores - and, most importantly, transforming children's life chances.

Findings from our review

"Pupils are incredibly proud of their school. They speak of the importance of being kind and supportive to one another and this contributes to a harmonious learning environment".

"For the past three years the proportion of children achieving a good level of
development in the early years foundation stage (EYFS) has been above the
national average".

"Reading, writing and mathematics is very well taught across the school, and
pupils are increasingly using the skills developed in these subjects in other
subjects".
