· Acting as learning partner for a foundation working with multi-academy trusts and charities to prevent school exclusions, supporting pilots and cross-sector learning.

Joining us as a Consultant is an excellent opportunity for someone who is curious, proactive and motivated by social impact. You will gain varied experience, deepen your expertise in research, evaluation and learning and contribute to addressing the root causes of social and economic exclusion across the UK.
