How are academy trusts doing in response to the cost pressures and cost of living crisis? Where are they continuing to invest? What does this mean for the sustainable growth and development of trusts generally?

The 2024 Academies Benchmark Report has recently been published and we are delighted to be hosting a full briefing on the report’s findings for all our members. The report will set out trends around trust finances – including the influence of current key challenges and priorities for trust leaders. The benchmarked data drawn from over 300 trusts is particularly insightful for trusts considering their own position against the national picture.

We will be joined by Kevin Connor, Partner at Bishop Fleming, who will outline the key findings and recommendations, drawing on national data and reflecting on the overall picture for trusts. This is a valuable opportunity to dig further into the report findings, gain essential insights for taking back to your board and exec teams, and to ask any questions around trust finances that might be on your mind.

This event is open to all individual members of our CEO, COO and Education Executive networks. Please note you must be an individual member of Forum Strategy to attend – if you are struggling to attend personally and would like to nominate someone to attend in your place, please email us at admin@forumstrategy.org
