Welcome to APSEND CEO Network

The APSEND National Network for MAT CEOs was formed in 2019 to create a supportive forum for the leaders of specialist Multi Academy Trusts (MATs), whilst also providing a collective voice and strategic representation for the sector.

The membership is currently comprised of around 50 CEOs, who represent a variety of specialist (and mixed) MATs from across the country. 

The main focus of the network is to: 

  1. Provide support to members on an ongoing basis. 
  2. Strive to be a strong collective voice for the specialist sector. 
  3. Work strategically and proactively with national bodies such as the DfE, Ofsted and the ESFA to provide ‘real time’ sector perspectives when required.
