Cluster Bombs of Distraction and Irrelevance

Cluster Bombs of Distraction & Irrelevance

What’s Your Why?• What do you want to achieve if

forming or joining a MAT?• What can you offer to other

schools within the MAT?• What would you be willing to

give up to be in the MAT?• What pain will you take for

others? • MATs are all different –

function (what do you intend to achieve) then form

Issues to Ponder• MAT as the Single Source Employer– HR Policies, Pay, Terms & Conditions, LGPS Pensions

• Land Issues– Unregistered Diocesan Land, LG to CG land transfer

• Finance Under Company Law– Consolidated accounts, Finance Regulations

• Due Diligence – cuts both ways and doesn’t matter– Standards, budgets, contracts

• Impact on the day job– Time given to the conversion process– New relationships and structures
