Multi-academy trusts (MATs) need to ensure all the schools in their group are engaged in a shared vision for the future and that means keeping everyone on board during times of change.
The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. No-one is quite sure who first came up with this phrase – Aristotle perhaps, or another great thinker – but in my view it captures the concept of the MAT rather well.
By sharing skills, knowledge and experience, trusts can get schools working together to achieve the best outcomes for pupils – and that seems like a powerful philosophy to me.
