We recognise the important role of middle and senior leaders in supporting their peers in other schools. We can provide schools in need of support with a task force of leaders, teachers and school practitioners, experts in their respective fields and qualified to support others to improve teaching, learning and outcomes.

MAT SEND review
The MAT Review aims to support MATs in developing an understanding of effective ways to meet the requirements of all learners. For this process to have the necessary impact on learner outcomes, the MAT should have the confidence to state what it can do well and what it needs further support with. The relationship between the reviewer and the MAT must be an open, honest and collaborative one.
