Perfect for: MAT CEOs, COOs, CFOs, and other Central Team staff

Hosted by Phillippa De'Ath, CRO, Arbor

With rising staff costs, increasing pressure on SEND budgets, and tighter scrutiny from the DfE, financial resilience has never been more critical for multi-academy trusts. The 2025 Academy Trust Handbook raises the bar for financial oversight and strategic procurement, making it essential for trust leaders to not only stay compliant, but to proactively steer their organisations toward long-term sustainability.

In this webinar, our panellists will discuss some of the most pressing financial challenges MATs face today and offer practical insights into navigating them with clarity, strategy, and confidence.

Join us to explore how trusts can make data-driven decisions, manage risk, and maintain strong reserves without compromising educational quality. We’ll also look at how to unlock value for money in procurement, ensure compliance with the latest DfE guidance, and use tools like Arbor to identify potential areas for cost-saving.

We look forward to seeing you there!
