In this webinar, NGA Director of Policy and Communications, Sam Henson explores the role that governance plays in strong trusts. This webinar addresses what it is that makes a MAT strong, and how governance can be the key to trust success. Sam explores how governance in MATs works in practice, from the business of the trust board, through to how they work and communicate with the local tier of governance at school level.Â
The session will also look at the ongoing work of the DfE's regulatory and commissioning review.Â
