The Tapscott Training Hub is here for our community of children and staff across the Trust and also for the external partners that we work with both within our borough and wider afield. We strive to support and develop our workforce, equipping them with the necessary knowledge and skills to provide a high-quality education for all our children. We believe in continual reflection of current practice, as well as reviewing research and adapting our approach to being key principles built into each programme. Our ECTs have been very successful this year and we had 6 completing their two year induction. We now have a new group of ECTs to take on their 2 year induction for 2025-2027. We also continue to deliver the NPQs for leading Teaching and SEND as well as support the wider work on ECT delivery of conferences and clinics across three boroughs. This year the Training Hub was successfully quality assured on our delivery and facilitation of these programmes. Excellent overall, with some aspects being at mastery/expert level - such as: • The way you expertly dealt with the breakout rooms - including participant assessment for learning and feedback ; • Expertly facilitating the ‘We Do’ section with probing, well-prepared questions; and • Also creating a really excellent, professional culture/ethos for learning at the start of the clinic.

Finance Summary An extremely challenging year saw the trust navigate through and overcome a range of difficult and demanding situations mainly due to the continued lack of core funding not matching the needs of our pupils. Together with falling rolls, which is a trend across the local geographic area, this year continued to raise further challenges driven by increased financial pressures leading to some tough decisions across the board. With this in mind, and the ever growing pressures on budgets, we are happy to report another successful year for the trust which saw us achieving our operational targets and outcomes whilst providing our children with an amazing education in a thriving environment. With a net in year surplus of just under £122k, is an outstanding achievement given the situation. Funding for schools is predominantly received from the DfE/ESFA (Department for Education/Employment and Skills Funding Agency) as restricted funds. Other funding is from the Local Authority, and the remaining income is a combination of smaller grants and trading income. FUNDING INCOME As is usual, the largest part of the funding was spent on staff salaries with teacher’s salaries accounting for 50% and support staff 30% respectively. Other expenditure includes wider spend on key areas such as Estates Management, Technology including ICT, Teaching Resources and legislative costs. The trust has completed building works following successful capital grant bids of over £200k including grants from the Crime Resilience Programme. Over £100k of contributions from the trust towards these projects has ensured that our estates remain solid and provide a safe environment for our pupils and staff.
