To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families what assessment he has made of the report by Pricewaterhouse Coopers commissioned by his Department on school leaders. (247461)

I welcomed the Pricewaterhouse Coopers report on school leadership. My Department has since provided funding of £10 million to the National College of School Leadership (NCSL) for succession planning. I have also made the development of new models of leadership one of the key priorities for the NCSL.
