Overview
ESFA will work with a Supplier who will identify, recruit, screen, induct and manage a minimum of 50 individuals (mentors) to fulfil the CFO mentoring programme. The supplier will oversee the mentoring process, ensuring the relationships are on target and will work with ESFA to unblock any issues.
The Supplier will also lead on developing an evaluation for the pilot, working closely with ESFA to agree the best way to do this. By providing sustained support, a CFO mentoring programme can play a key role in building capacity and capability for effective financial management within the academies sector.
Results from this pilot will provide an indication of emerging outcomes and the effectiveness of the programme and will inform any decision as to whether we will scale up the pilot in the future. We anticipate the invitation to tender process will go live in the next few weeks.
