Partnership/Hub
Yes, these are open to whoever you feel would benefit within your school, at no extra cost.
You can search for your school on our School Support Directory which will provide you with this information, or if you email partnershipsteam@challengepartners.org, a member of the team will be able to confirm this for you.
If you email partnershipsteam@challengepartners.org, a member of the team will be able to link you up with your hub and ensure you are part of the different meetings and activities.
It's entirely up to you, but we would recommend sharing your QAR report during a hub meeting. Others in your hub may be able to provide support following your QA Review, and/or benefit from hearing about your areas of strength.
