The Kemnal Academies Trust (TKAT) is one of the largest Multi-Academy Trusts in the South and East of England with 45 Special, Primary, Secondary and All Through Academies. Founded in 2010, the Trust grew extremely rapidly in its first 5 years of operation. Since that first growth phase TKAT has focussed on establishing the Trust and setting up common systems and procedures for improving the schools in our family. The Trust's education leadership teams and improvement teams work with groups of schools to provide extensive support to the schools most in need.

A key focus for TKAT is addressing the needs of young people and families from challenging circumstances, alongside maintaining a strong ethos of collaboration within its #oneTKATfamily. As a result of our strong culture, we have been able to embed best practice across our schools. Despite our rapid growth, we have made good progress for our pupils but there is plenty more to do.

The next CEO will be coming into a strong Trust that is looking forward to its next chapter. The improvements over recent years give the Trust a strong foundation to build on. In this next phase TKAT wants to ensure that the improvements to date are sustainable and consistent across all our schools and we are keen to share what we do to make a valuable contribution to the education sector.

The successful candidate will be an inspiring and strategic leader with a passion to ensure that every child receives a high-quality education. Led by doing the right thing for our pupils, you will challenge and support teams to work together to achieve more than they thought was possible. You will be adept at leading a large organisation, and you will welcome collaboration as the key to achieving great success.
