HCAT Governance 

At HCAT we are committed to fostering a culture of transparency, accountability, and excellence in education. Our governance framework is designed to support the strategic vision and operational efficiency of our trust, ensuring that every academy within our network thrives. Through a collaborative and accountable approach, our Board of Trustees, local tier boards and executive leadership team work together to make informed decisions that prioritise student outcomes, staff development, and community engagement.

We believe that strong governance is the foundation of successful schools. Our governance structure ensures clear oversight, consistent support, and continuous improvement across all our academies, enabling us to deliver high-quality education and opportunities for every child. By upholding the highest standards of integrity and leadership, we aim to build a sustainable future where every student is empowered to achieve their full potential.
