Future Leaders
The United Learning Trust (ULT) and Future Leaders are working together to train and support the next generation of ULT principals to ensure our academies continue to provide outstanding leadership which enables all staff to bring out ‘the best in everyone’. The partnership is working to assess the development needs of future principals and signpost them to appropriate development opportunities utilising the Future Leaders Programme and modules from it. Our objective is to develop strong leaders who will inspire our students and staff to realise their full potential.
Future Leaders was founded in 2006 with the vision to improve the life chances of pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds by raising their attainment through effective, inspirational school leadership.
As an independent charity, Future Leaders is training and supporting the next generation of senior leaders and Headteachers for the UK’s most challenging schools. The Future Leaders programme offers an accelerated path to headship for qualified current - and former - teachers who believe passionately that every child has the potential to succeed, regardless of background. It provides a mix of residential and on-the-job training, coaching from experienced Headteachers and placements in exemplary urban schools. Participants should be senior leaders within 12 months and be working towards headship after a very intense four years. There are currently 217 Future Leaders working in at least 150 challenging schools across 5 regions reaching more than 150,000 pupils in disadvantaged areas.
