The children’s commisioner Dame Rachel de Souza has joined the board running the new National Institute of Teaching.
de Souza has been appointed as a director of the School-Led Development Trust, set up by four large academy trusts last year to bid for and run the government’s flagship teacher training institute.
Documents published on Companies House’s website today show she is now a director of the body, alongside the chief executives of its four founding trusts – Oasis Community Learning, the Harris Federation, Outwood Grange Academies Trust, and Star Academies.
