MAT Governance Group
MAT Governance Group
Recognising that governance at size brings its own complexities and issues, TGP set up and run the MAT Governance Group for governance professionals who work in Trusts with over 30 schools.
Over 40+ trusts are now at this size and collectively this group supports nearly 1500 schools.
The group meets each half term and as part of those meetings they are joined by sector partners including the Chartered Governance Institute, Confederation of School Trusts, Governors for Schools, GovernorHub and the National Governance Association.
The Department for Education also attend these meetings.
Asked to draft non-statutory exclusions guidance for the DfE, we have also inputted into projects including:
* Informing the development of complaints processes
* Understanding the role of Members
* The impact of financial expertise on board effectiveness
The group advocates for all governance professionals, raising awareness of the role with our sector partners.
