Headteacher Consultancy Offer
Our trust co-ordinates and administers the Headteacher Consultant Service on behalf of Chester Diocesan Board of Education. This allows schools to broker support from one of the Diocese list of Headteacher Consultants – press the button below for 'pen portraits'.

For 2024-25, we are offering Headteacher Consultant support in the form of:

  • Headteacher Performance Management (autumn term)
  • School Improvement Partner visits (up to 1 per term)


There is a flat-rate fee for either service, based on ½ day in school plus preparation and report-writing time and costs of travel.

For schools who would like to sign up to the Headteacher Consultant service for 2024-25, the online booking system is now live! Please follow the link below before 30.09.24 – the facility will close on that day, so schools will need to decide on the service(s) they would like to sign up to before that date:

  • Choose if you want 1 x HTPM visit
  • Choose up to 3 SIP visits, 1 x per term


On the next page, please then:

  • Choose which consultant (product) you would like to complete your HTPM – select '1' from the drop-down menu
