North East Essex Teaching School Alliance was set up in April 2013 in response to the government’s plan to give schools a central role in raising standards by developing a self -improving and sustainable school-led system.  We are an umbrella organisation of local schools in North East Essex headed up by a Lead School – Colchester County High School for Girls.  Through collaborative partnership our focus is on Initial Teacher Training; Continued Professional Development; Specialist Leaders of Education; Research & Development; School to School Support; Leadership & Talent Management.
