Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether payments for school efficiency advisers who are already employed as school business professionals will be made to the school that employs them; and whether such advisers will be paid to advise the school that already employs those advisers.
The majority of School Efficiency Advisers (SEAs) are practising school business professionals working in the sector. Payment for their deployments as SEAs will go directly to the school or academy trust that employs them.
These advisers will not be paid to advise the school or academy trust that already employs them, but will be deployed to advise other schools and trusts.
