Our mission is simple: to add 100 Black Headteachers to the education system by 2038.
Founded in 2023, the 100 Black Headteachers Network was created in partnership with Teach First to tackle a longstanding issue: the severe underrepresentation of Black leaders in UK headship roles.
The barriers to progression are complex - unconscious bias in recruitment, a lack of visible role models, and limited networks of support. But we’re proving change is possible. In just two years, three of our members have already secured headships - and we’re just getting started.
At the heart of our network is connection - bringing Black senior leaders together with influential figures in education. We’ve hosted CPD events with leaders like Sir Jon Coles (United Learning), Will Smith (Greenshaw Learning Trust), and Dr Lawrence Foley (Future Academies). We also collaborate with headship recruiters, Deloitte and serving headteachers to provide practical support and mentorship.
