NPQ’s 2021 A reminder that it has been confirmed that the DfE will not be funding the NPQ programmes in the immediate future. If your school has made an application(s), please be aware that you will be asked to fund the programme for your staff or alternatively you may be able to apply through the Apprenticeship Levy.

More information is available at Leadership NPQ and Apprenticeship Pathways. If you want to discuss the Levy please contact Best Practice directly through Lyndsie Barnard lyndsie.barnard@bestpracticenet.co.uk She will pass your details onto the most appropriate person at Best Practice to help you through the process. Please take a look at the two documents re the Levy that have been sent with this week’s flyer.

Colleagues who have already started programmes are unaffected by this decision.

If you wish to support a colleague through the NPQs the application must be submitted for the next round of delivery of the programmes by the 15th January to secure their place(s), remembering the following: • •

Applicants completing their programme application form will be asked to identify a delivery partner from a drop down list, and then to enter that partner’s ‘partner allocation code’.

Your partner allocation code is: ALPST
