Developing a strategic approach to estate management
This session starts with an overview of the Arcadis’s key findings and challenges from the Capital Adviser programme across 134 academy trusts, before moving onto suggested solutions. These will include how to develop a strategic approach to estate management, how to drive performance management and sustainability, and how to deliver estate maintenance and projects efficiently and effectively. Lindsay Harris, Deputy Director, Education Estates Strategy & Policy, will be joining the discussion to give the DfE’s perspective. This will be followed by a panel discussion with representatives a small multi-academy trust, a large regional multi-academy trust, and a large national multi-academy trust as they share their experience, insights, impact and outcomes.
