Archive of Legacy NPQ School Improvement Projects

The National Professional Qualifications (NPQs) were reformed in 2021. The reforms saw changes to the NPQ assessment criteria so that NPQ participants no longer had to complete a School Improvement Project.

School Improvement Projects saw participants lead real and sustainable change in their schools and we have decided to leave an archive of some of the most impactful projects available online. We hope they can be used to inspire change at your school and thank the NPQ participants involved in the projects for allowing us to share them.


We invite colleagues to view a range of archive School Improvement Projects online.
