The founder of a collapsed academy trust under investigation for its “luxury” booze spend and handing pay-outs to senior staff rehired the next day has been banned from running schools.
Trevor Averre-Beeson is “unsuitable” to “take part in the management” of a school, an official government barring notice published on Friday states.
The notice comes seven years after government intervention at the scandal-hit Lilac Sky Schools Trust, which Averre-Beeson co-founded and then initially led.
Ministers have repeatedly failed to honour their promise to publish a now seven-year investigation into the trust, shut down in 2016 with its nine schools handed to others.
