A “no-ego” group for trusts has vowed to champion diverse school voices and help more women reach top jobs, as the previously low-profile network doubles its membership.
The Queen Street Group – which has evolved from an informal group of CEOs in 2015 to a formal network of 35 trusts, largely serving disadvantaged communities – launched its three-point agenda for the year ahead this week.
The group has pledged to find practical ways to tackle under-representation of women among trust chiefs, help growing trusts avoid older trusts’ mistakes, and make multi-academy trusts “leaders in their communities”.
