Professor Louise Hayward is an appointed member of the Forum which is chaired by the Deputy First Minister.
The Education Leaders’ Forum has been established to capture the views of wider stakeholders on development of the Scottish education system. It will bring together partners and stakeholders from across the education system and related sectors to discuss current issues and to share views and experiences. The Forum will inform the work of the Scottish Education Council and the Curriculum and Assessment Board and Strategic Board for Teacher Education that sit beneath it.
The Forum is intended to develop a sense of common purpose and promote partnership working as we pursue a common goal for Scottish education; improve understanding of the education strategic agenda and enable the education community to play a part in developing and delivering excellence and equity for all children and young people in Scotland; improve Scottish Government engagement with stakeholders by enabling views, issues and concerns to be discussed; improve links and connections across our education system from the early years through to further and higher education; be a source of guidance and advice to Ministers and the Scottish Education Council on key issues.
