Rebrokerages and MAT mergers

How to effect a smooth transfer for both academy trusts

A webinar for schools and academy trust leaders

A recent survey revealed 50% of MATs are planning to expand by way of an academy conversion within the next 12 months. However, conversion is not the only route to MAT expansion.  It is becoming much more common that single academy trusts are joining established multi-academy trusts or a couple of smaller multi-academy trusts merge to become one more financially secure multi-academy trust.

Our webinar will provide an insight into the key considerations for MAT’s when approaching a rebrokerage or merger, and share some practical tips to help you effect a smooth transfer.

What will be covered?

The scenarios:                                 

• Single academy trust academy transfer to join an established MAT
• A failing academy transferring from one MAT to join another MAT at the request of the DfE
• MAT mergers
• Considerations for both parties in the above rebrokerage and merger scenarios including TUPE
• Post transfer considerations including the formal dissolution of the academy trust company

Our webinar is perfect for decision-makers – from HR leads, headteachers and departmental heads, to those who manage staff in schools and academies.

We will include a Q&A at the end of the event with our education and employment teams.

This event is not open to freelance HR professionals or recruitment agencies.
