birmingham education partnership
BEP is both a charity and a company (not for profit) that is focussed on school
improvement in its broadest sense. Our partnership works through a variety of
discrete channels. These include contractual or commissioned work, membership
services and traded activities. Our key activities include knowing the needs and
strengths of all Birmingham schools, supporting those that are at risk, or those
already judged to be less than good. BEP provides opportunities for the
remainder of Birmingham schools to support their own school development journey.
We do this by brokering support with expert consultants, offering specialised
events and CPD opportunities and facilitating effective collaboratives and
partnerships between schools. We have developed the BEP Peer Review Programme, a
bespoke programme for Birmingham Schools, to rigorously challenge each other and
identify priority areas for development. Our traded services are delivered by a
team of high quality, independent education professionals as Priority Partners
with years of experience, working successfully at all levels of challenge.
Additional programmes are also delivered by experienced coordinators to address
mental health in schools, development of the arts and sports curriculum,
engagement of pupils with global issues and building connections between local
businesses and schools to improve career opportunities for young people.
