The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, if she will review the (a) governance and (b) accountability structures of multi academy trusts.
Answered by Catherine McKinnell
This government has committed to remove barriers to opportunity and raise school standards to ensure the school system is enabling every child to thrive, no matter their background.
The government is clear strong accountability is non-negotiable. That is why the government has committed to bring Multi-Academy Trusts into the inspection system, to make the system fairer and more transparent, and enable intervention when schools and trusts are not performing to the required standards.
