Meeting with Baroness Barran MBE – a seat at the table of leadership!
On Tuesday 24th October RBMA Lead Consultant, Rebecca Beaver, took a seat at the table with Baroness Barran MBE and colleagues in the Department for Education to discuss experiences and perspectives on the school system gathered as part of her work as an SRMA. Discussions included system pressures caused by increasing numbers of pupils with SEND, the funding gap of the pending support staff pay award and the importance of the role of school business professionals (SBPs) in managing resources in challenging times. Does the SBP in your organisation have a seat at the leadership table?
