Professional Services
By combining central services, we're creating a solid foundation for delivering the benefits of forming a Trust. This will provide improved service and support over current arrangements while generating new opportunities for our staff. Any cost savings will be reinvested in the education of our learners across the Trust.
Our goal is to continue delivering the best possible educational experience for our students, and this move is just one way we're making that happen. Locally based, the consolidated central services would comprise the following functions enabling partner schools to streamline processes and enhance operational efficiency.
