The School Efficiency Adviser (SEA) project is one part of a wider programme, which is committed to helping schools improve their efficiency, including saving £1 billion on non-staff spend on schools by 2019-2020. The Department already provides support, guidance and tools in order to help schools achieve the best value from their resources, improve pupil outcomes and promote social mobility.

The pilot will test how SEAs deliver value for money for the taxpayer and drive significant savings in schools at a cost efficient rate. We will monitor effectiveness and cost as part of the pilot.
