Job Description
Fixed Term Appointment or Secondment for 23 months, with the possibility of an extension.
Are you a transformational change leader looking for your next challenge?
We are looking for a Chief Inspector of Education in Scotland, on a secondment or fixed term appointment basis, to provide significant national leadership, working with leaders across education and Government.
The Scottish Government is committed to implementing significant reform to secure better outcomes for children and young people across Scotland. With statutory powers about to be conferred upon HMCIE, this is an exciting opportunity for a transformational change leader to establish a new independent education inspectorate, His Majesty’s Inspectorate of Education (HMIE), and to deliver cultural and system level change.
Advising on complex issues in areas of strong public, media and political interest and scrutiny, you will provide information and evidence to influence educational policy, improve educational practices across Scotland, and communicate inspection findings to diverse audiences including media, internationally and parliamentary committees.
We are seeking a highly respected and influential education leader to deliver a system-wide impact in a short time frame. The successful candidate will take ownership of complex decisions and deliver measurable results.
ResponsibilitiesYou will have statutory responsibility for setting inspection plans and overseeing the inspection of learning, teaching and assessment to drive improvement, resulting in better outcomes for current and future generations.
Key deliverables in year one- In support of the Government’s overall vision for Scottish education, develop and deliver a two-year strategy for HMIE, integrating new legislative requirements to maximise the inspectorate’s role to promote improvement in education and work in partnership with others.
- Building on work already underway, improve and innovate the approach to inspection and ensure that inspections are conducted to the highest standards, maximising their contribution to educational improvement, within finite resources.
- Drive changes in working practices and behaviours which will underpin improved impact from inspection activity and increased efficiency. For example, evidence that the organisation is orientated to system improvement, and sharing practice which is achieving excellence and equity for learners. Form a close relationship to the education system that it seeks to improve, with more frequent feedback and sharing evidence of what is working well.
- Drawing on an existing reputation as a respected education leader, communicate inspection findings by engaging with senior system leaders, including in schools, local authorities, professional associations, Education Scotland and Scottish Government. Through excellent communication skills cultivate improvement through relationships, challenging policy and practice where necessary to raise standards in performance for learners, based on robust evidence and sound judgement.
- Development and implementation of a sustainable financial and operating model for the new organisation.
