Education alliance for life chances
Our Partnership Board
OUR EDUCATION ALLIANCE FOR LIFE CHANCES PARTNERSHIP BOARD IS A LEADERSHIP GROUP MADE UP OF OVER 20 REPRESENTATIVES FROM A RANGE OF ORGANISATIONS FROM ACROSS THE BRADFORD DISTRICT.
Our leaders and decision makers recognise that no single organisation has the capacity or capability to provide the holistic support needed for healthy childhood development (especially within our most disadvantaged communities) and a ‘whole system’ partnership approach to improving both social mobility and children’s life chances will allow effective pooling and targeting of resource, efficient operational alignment, and a coordinated strategy.
As an alliance, we are keen to utilise our Centre for Applied Education Research to anchor our governance, develop our thinking, platform our cause and support our ambition.
