TAMAT
THE ALLIANCE MULTI ACADEMY TRUST (TAMAT)
On 1st April 2024, St Martin’s Church of England Primary School joined ‘The Alliance Multi-Academy Trust’ (TAMAT). This is a trust of seven schools in the Surrey area who have come together to work in partnership with a focus on enriching the education of every child in the trust. Further information about TAMAT can be found at www.tamat.org.uk.
When the school converted to become an academy, it left the direct control of the local authority and formed a trust company, which is limited under charity law. The governance structure, agreements and key policies can be found on the TAMAT website.
Each school within TAMAT has a local academy board consisting of governors who have delegated powers from the Trust Board to ensure that the standards of education and financial compliance are maintained. Further information about local governors and their roles and responsibilities can be found in our Governor pages.
Governance Structure
The structure has been agreed by all schools in consultation with the Guildford Diocese Board of Education and the Regional Schools Commissioner.
TAMAT Organisational Structure
The TAMAT organisational structure is designed to provide support to school leaders across the multi-academy trust. The Headteachers of all the schools meet to discuss successes and challenges and share best practice. There are also a number of working groups for Deputy Heads, Special Educational Needs Coordinators, Designated Safeguarding Leaders, subject leaders and office staff.
