The Mead Educational Trust, a multi academy trust based in Leicester, comprises secondary and primary schools joining together in an exciting partnership that is committed to providing its pupils with a world class educational experience.

As a multi academy trust, our schools are joined together as a single legal entity; The Mead Educational Trust. The Trust is a charitable company limited by guarantee and has a number of layers of governance, the Members, Board of Trustees, Academy Councils & Executive Team. Further details of the Trust鈥檚 governance structure can be found below.

The Members are best viewed as guardians of the constitution, changing the Articles of Association if necessary and ensuring the charitable objects are fulfilled. The Members hold the Trust Board to account for the effective governance of the Trust but have a minimal role in the actual running of the trust. The Members appoint some of the Trustees and can exercise powers to appoint and remove Trustees. The Trust will ordinarily have five Members. Click here to meet the members.
