2. What are our options for conversion?

Currently, there are three main options facing all schools.

1. Do nothing. If this is your preferred option, then at least have a Plan B. Be ready to move if anything happens to force the issue so that you at least have some control in the journey.

2. Join an existing Multi Academy Trust. If this is your preferred option, then at least conduct robust due diligence to be able to make a fully informed decision as to the MAT that you join. Is the MAT the right one for your school?

3. Create a Multi Academy Trust. If this is your preferred option, then at least choose your partner schools wisely and conduct robust due diligence to ensure the Trust you create is the best it can possibly be.

Whatever your preferred option or to find out more about the options you have, speak to us. We provide external and independent support to help you make the right choice for your school.
