   This is something we are just trying out for now. I hope it catches on.

   There is definitely a move in the independent sector to further engage with the maintained sector. Even in my brief tenure at the ISC (six weeks and counting), I have heard lots about partnerships between state and independent schools sharing resources (and to be fair most of the activity pre-dates the moves by Govt to test charitable status).

   There is, for anyone who is interested, a government sponsored programme called the Independent State School Partnership (http://www.teachernet.gov.uk/wholeschool/buildingbridges/) is there to support these partnerships.

   Anyway, we at the ISC would be delighted to hear from anyone who might fancy writing a blog on our site or who just wants to find out a bit more about the independent sector (www.isc.co.uk).

   Cheers
