MATs can manage on legacy, server-based systems for up to 3-5 schools, but to grow a sustainable central team requires modern infrastructure to centralise data, operations and communications. MATs need systems to scale, but it can be hard to find the time, budget and buy-in to make a change.

How can trust leaders prioritise and implement system change with minimal time and budget - all whilst making sure their teams are bought-in to the journey?

Join us for the next instalment of our popular roundtable series where we’re bringing MAT leaders together to discuss just that. The roundtables will be hosted by Owen McColgan, CEO of Howard Trust and Nick Doy, Head of Data Quality at Nicholas Postgate Catholic Academy, who will lead guided discussions on common scaling challenges, and share practical advice on how they recently led successful system change projects at their trusts.

To ensure each discussion is focused and effective we’re limiting tickets at each roundtable to 12. We recommend booking yours as soon as possible.

This roundtable is organised by Arbor - the UK’s fastest-growing cloud MIS. We’ve helped over 190 trusts roll out a new MIS, and are experts in system change management. We host sold-out events for MAT leaders each year, from thought leadership webinar series to invite-only workshops and roundtables. Over 600 MAT leaders have attended Arbor events this academic year.

Agenda:

• Discuss the scaling challenges affecting your trust right now with other CEOs, COOs and CIOs
• Hear from established MAT leaders, Owen McColgan, CEO of Howard Trust and Nick Doy, Head of Data Quality at Nicholas Postgate Catholic Academy, about how they faced their scaling challenges and their experience of a big systems change
• Get practical advice on change management and systems procurement

These roundtables are part of our wider event programme to help schools and MATs manage change and to demystify switching systems across a large organisation. Check out the other free events created for you and your school leaders here.
