Ministers have today finally revealed the new National Institute of Teaching (NIoT) will be led by the School-Led Development Trust (SLDT) – and open as planned in September.
The NIoT said it will be “run by schools for schools”, with Melanie Renowden the founding chief executive.
Renowden is currently an executive director at Star Academies, one of the four founding trusts behind the SLDT. The other three are Harris Federation, Outwood Grange Academies Trust and Oasis Community Learning.
