Tower Hamlets Education Partnership

Who we are

Tower Hamlets Education Partnership is a schools’ company established by school leaders to deliver high quality school improvement to all Tower Hamlets schools. It is rooted in the highly successful collaboration that has characterised and underpinned education in the borough over the last two decades. Our schools operate as a family to support, challenge and encourage each other in their determination to do the very best for every child. Our member schools have access to a rich membership and a strong model of school improvement. THE Partnership is independent of the Local Authority, but works closely with it and is supported by it. It also works closely with a range of other local organisations who are determined to give our children and young people the best possible start in life.

The aim of Tower Hamlets Education Partnership is to meet the challenge of ensuring that all children and young people in Tower Hamlets achieve the best possible outcomes and flourish through an effective partnership of schools.

Led by schools, for schools, THE Partnership is building on 20 years of excellence in Tower Hamlets and an existing culture of collaborative working to continue to raise standards.

Our core values:

• Aspiration
• Trust and support
• Equality and inclusion
• Transparency and accountability

The primary focus of THE Partnership is collaboration for school improvement – for all schools, not just for those experiencing difficulties.

Our key activities include knowing the strengths and needs of the schools in our Partnership, through our school improvement team and leadership consultants and through the mechanism of peer review. We offer a package of membership services, traded services, training and brokering.

THE Partnership is registered as a School Company – a company limited by guarantee with charitable status – owned by its member schools.
