We advise you to carefully read the five key performance questions and consider how your trust operates.
- Does your MAT have a clear system for identifying who are your best leaders and teaching staff and which schools have strength in specific phases or subjects?
- Does your MAT know where its area of weakness are in its curriculum and teaching performance?
- How well do you tackle your improvement areas?
- Are your system leaders and lead practitioners being used strategically to support other schools, model good practice and coach peers across your MAT?
- Does your MAT have a common model for appraising staff and identifying priorities for development and improvement?
In answering the above questions, we anticipate a common theme has emerged. Your trust is competent when it comes to school improvement and you can draw to mind a number of personnel, departments and schools who have actively developed. However. It is likely that you are of the mindset that your trust could do more.
