‘Great leadership’ and ‘coherence of vision’ are vital if you want to run an effective and sustainable multi-academy trust (MAT).  These are the key findings of a recent report (April 2018) from education charity, Ambition School Leadership, using input from 40 MAT CEOs as well as surveys from staff at 22 MATs. 

We hope you can join Novatia from 24-27 January 2018 at ExCel London for Bett 2018 – Europe’s leading showcase for technology in Education. 

Planning a clear and decisive ICT vision can bring rich rewards for Schools and MATs.  Not just in cost savings but in significantly improving student outcomes as well.

Got a tricky ICT issue? 

Come pick our brains on Stand D22 ... 

There’s no doubt, as an Education leader, ICT causes you one of the biggest headaches.  But have you ever thought about your role and how you can affect it?  Often the truth is it’s not simply the ICT people’s fault.  It’s a symptom of a wider issue, indicating a lack of clear ICT vision and direction. 

Cyber threats come in many different forms.  At the moment, ‘ransomware’ attacks have been getting a lot of press coverage; some of us might even have experienced one first hand.  For an attack to be successful, cyber-criminals need to target users, such as systems administrators, who have full access to a wide amount of data. 

The GDPR. We all know it’s coming

Our conversations with Trusts and Schools reveal one disturbing thing: school leaders are not being offered the opportunity to understand how the GDPR needs to be addressed strategically.

We are rectifying that.

This seminar on 10 October, between 9.15 to 12.00, at the Double Tree Hilton, Newbury, will help you find out...

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is coming. We all need to know about it and make sure we’re compliant with it.  This is the first in a series of Novatia blogs, and seminars, to help the UK Education Market understand what the GDPR is and what the GDPR means for schools.

We know the August results are etched in your mind. All schools will want to share the great news of your success and take an in depth look at the results and what they mean.

You will need to be able to investigate each area of student performance to begin to understand where interventions have made a significant impact and where improvements have been made.
