Perfect for: MAT CEOs, COOs, CFOs, and other Central Team staff

Speakers: Lauren Thorpe, Chief Transformation Officer, United Learning and Owen McColgan, CEO, The Howard Academy Trust

With the continued growth of the MAT landscape, we conclude our series by looking at how the role and scope of trusts has changed, and what it should look like in the future.

According to the Confederation of School Trusts, "the strongest trusts facilitate knowledge building through professional development, with a view to improving curriculum and pedagogy. They bring professionals together in ways that are supported by proper strategic oversight and accountability."

In this panel discussion we'll explore:
- What a 'good' trust looks like
- How collaborative structures can benefit schools
- What trust leaders should be doing to improve trusts as a whole

With the underlying mission of MATs remaining the same - to improve the outcomes of students across the country - we will also look at exactly how are trusts are creating a culture of continuous school improvement in the face of changing expectations.

We look forward to seeing you there!
