Ambition School Leadership is a UK charitable organisation with the mission of addressing educational disadvantage. The organisation is building a network of exceptional school leaders at all levels to transform the lives of the children who need it most.
Ambition School Leadership provides world-class leadership development and technical training to educators across England and Wales – from teachers aspiring to lead their department to CEOs steering multiple schools, and all the crucial leadership roles in between.
They work with partners across the education sector to support the long-term improvement of schools in challenging contexts and offer clear pathways of expert career progression for the most important job in the world.
The organisation is working for a fair society built on an education system where every child can thrive, no matter what their background.
Ambition School Leadership was formed in November 2016 from two education charities, The Future Leaders Trust and Teaching Leaders.
Ambition School Leadership runs leadership development programmes in England that enable school leaders to create more impact in schools that serve disadvantaged children and their communities.
Middle leadership
Senior leadership and headship
System leadership
The leaders Ambition School Leadership develop help disadvantaged children make more progress than disadvantaged children in similar schools.
The charity's middle leaders raise pupil achievement to meet or exceed the national average.
Their senior leaders demonstrate impact from the outset.
Disadvantaged children at schools that have been led by the charity's headteachers for at least two years make better progress and have higher attainment than those in similar schools.
Ambition School Leadership has been developing leaders on selective programmes since 2006. Over 70% are still working in challenging schools.
Baroness Sally Morgan is the Chair of Board.
