Trustees

Trustees make up the board of trustees of a MAT. The main responsibilities of the trustees are to:

  • Set the strategic direction of the trust
  • Hold senior school leadership to account
  • Oversee the trust’s financial performance

Trustees are similar to school governors but operate at a higher level, overseeing strategy and finance across all schools in the trust.

The board of trustees are accountable for all the schools within the trust.
