AEPA Membership
Our membership includes partnerships across England, from established organisations to groups that are still developing.
AEPA Membership is open to local education partnerships and clusters of schools. AEPA Supporter Membership is open to all other organisations who support the aims of the AEPA.
The cost and member benefits are the same for both types of membership. Annual membership is £300 per organisation.
A core purpose of the AEPA is for partnerships to learn from each other by sharing experiences and ideas. Our annual conference, Leading Education Locally, brings together local partnerships to collaborate and hear from leading speakers such as Andreas Schleicher from the OECD, Bridget Phillipson MP and Catherine McKinnell MP when in Opposition, Becky Francis, in her role as CEO of the Education Endowment Foundation, Dame Rachel de Souza, the Children’s Commissioner, and Professor Toby Greany, as well as school and education partnership leaders, and our co-chairs, Baroness Estelle Morris and Dame Christine Gilbert.
Roundtables
We host regular online roundtables for colleagues leading education partnerships and colleagues in schools to share approaches and practice. Each roundtable is chaired by an AEPA steering group member, with a speaker from another education partnership or another expert. Recent topics include:
