    Episode 02 | Building Utopia: In Conversation with Broad Horizons Education Trust

    Hosted by Sarah Barton, CEO of Juniper Education, this episode of JoinIn features Owen Jenkins, CEO, and Samuel Thompson, CFO of Broad Horizons Education Trust, an 18-school, Norfolk-based trust spanning nurseries through to specialist residential SEMH academies.   We begin by exploring what it takes to build one organisation out of 18 schools, from the deliberate geography behind the trust's 2022 merger to the culture that binds it together: a shared "Utopia" vision and the guiding principle of continuous improvement with kindness.  Owen and Samuel reflect on how their CEO/CFO partnership has developed since 2023, and how financial discipline, attendance, inclusion and attainment sit at the heart of their FAIR framework.   We then zoom out to the wider MAT landscape, weighing the opportunities that scale brings against the challenges of relentless policy change, before turning to the government's white paper and what it means for trust growth, funding certainty and long-term planning. Owen and Samuel share their honest first reactions, the questions still left unanswered, and why implementation, not intention, will be the real test.   The conversation also digs into how schools can join a trust without losing their identity, how Broad Horizons balances shared systems with local autonomy, and a candid discussion of SEND, prompted by Owen's recent piece asking whether the DfE should become the Department for Children again, and what it means that one in five children now identify with some level of need.   We close with a quick-fire round covering leadership advice, financial misconceptions about MATs, and where AI fits into the future of education.   Whether you're a school leader, trust executive, school business professional, teacher or education specialist, this episode offers a candid, practical look at what it really takes to lead a growing multi-academy trust.

    Episode 01 | The DfE’s Vision for Schools: MIS Reform and the Impact of the White Paper

    Hosted by Sarah Barton, CEO of Juniper Education, and George Gardiner, Chief Technology Officer, the first episode of JoinIn explores two of the biggest developments currently shaping education. We begin by examining the government's proposed new framework for Management Information Systems (MIS), discussing what it could mean for schools, trusts, data ownership, interoperability and the future of joined-up technology. We then unpack the key themes from the Every Child Achieving and Thriving white paper, including SEND reform, inclusion, attendance, belonging and workforce challenges. Along the way, Sarah and George explore why connected data, integrated systems and a more joined-up approach to school improvement could play a crucial role in helping education leaders navigate the years ahead. Whether you're a school leader, trust executive, school business professional, teacher or education specialist, this episode provides practical insight into the policy changes and strategic developments likely to shape the future of education.
