Big Education
Big Education is a Multi-Academy Trust and a charity that is working to transform the education system to ensure young people receive a balanced education. They run schools, develop leaders and teachers across the country through their programmes, and work in coalitions to bring about change.
What we did:
- Big Change funded the first cohorts of Big Education Leadership Programme in 2019.
- It has successfully run annual cohorts since launch and alumni report that it has exceeded their expectations and impacted their leadership positively.
- In 2020, we funded Big Education to develop "Learning from Lockdown", through a blog, and accompanying playbooks and toolkits for educators, exploring what we could learn from the Covid-19 lockdown that would improve education.
- The website had 94,366 page views with visits from every region of the UK, and playbooks had more than 500 downloads.
