NPQs
National Professional Qualifications (NPQs) are voluntary qualifications designed to promote excellent teaching and great school leadership. They provide teachers and leaders with the training, support, and guidance they need to develop expertise in school leadership and specialist areas of teaching practice.
The Halifax Academy, in partnership with Outstanding Leaders Partnership (OLP), are delighted to offer a range of high-quality accredited school leadership qualifications across our Multi Academy Trust. OLP, managed by Best Practice Network, is approved by the Department for Education to deliver qualifications, training thousands of UK school leaders in partnership with 50 teaching schools.
If you would like further information or an informal chat, please email rjones@thehalifaxacademy.org or call Rachel Jones on 01422 301080.
