Trust Peer Review
Drive sustainable school improvement across your trust
Aligned to the CST's Strong Trusts Assurance Framework, this expert-led three-day review evaluates trust effectiveness in driving school improvement and outcomes for the children and young people they serve
Who is it for?
School trust leaders seeking to develop themselves and their trust to secure better pupil outcomes
How does it work?
Collaborative, expert-led, developmental peer review
Three days working together with a Leader Reviewer and peer trust leaders to explore strengths, areas for development and next steps
Celebrate strengths and identifies actionable next steps
Trusts are reviewed with rigour, but on their own terms to ensure the process is attuned to their specific context and school improvement priorities
Provides unrivalled CPD and insight into other trusts
Trust leaders can train as a peer reviewer and visit other trusts, gaining unique CPD and ideas to bring back to their own trust
Being a reviewer gave me perspectives across all aspects of the trust: staff, leadership, governance, etc. and this was really helpful in understanding how the trust operated as well as providing real insights into my own situation. Reflection after the review has led to some substantial change here
