SSAT Framework for Exceptional Education
Are you looking for a fresh take on school improvement? The SSAT Framework for Exceptional Education (FfEE) brings together the expertise of schools in the network and our education team, to articulate the journey from ‘beginning’ to ‘transforming’ practice.
Just completing the first round of the SSAT Framework for Excellence applications and very flattered to see my name on the list of contributors. It’s such a fantastic framework and I have learnt a huge amount from visiting peers in different schools and contexts. I’m also hugely grateful for the dedicated and innovative network the SSAT have introduced me to.

Covering 12 key areas of practice, FfEE is designed to support self-review and action planning, setting an ambitious standard which goes beyond statutory frameworks. Use it as the focus for a leadership team strategy day or to support quality assurance work with staff at all levels.
The Framework has been fully updated for 2024, ensuring that it represents current best practice. Thanks to the following schools for their invaluable support in revising the descriptors:
- Bishopshalt School
- Bingley Grammar School
- Churchdown School Academy
- Kennet School
- Langley Grammar School
- Royal Latin School
- St Jogn the Baptist School
- St Mark’s Church of England Academy
- St Paul’s Catholic College
