We are excited to announce the launch of “The National MAT Awards” which will be hosted by the Multi Academy Trust Association (MATA), awarding outstanding achievement and recognising the great work multi academy trusts do in improving education!

MATA is an organisation launched in 2021, a free association to join for trust leaders to learn and engage with fellow education leaders. There are many benefits to joining, in particular, a feature allowing members to ask anonymous questions via the website which will be answered by fellow MAT leaders and consultants!

Part of MATA’s mission is to celebrate the successes and achievements of the MAT system by rewarding outstanding work with the annual “National MAT Awards”.  MATs can now enter for free, by downloading the entry form below and sending their forms through to awards@matassociation.org

The awards will take place on the evening of “The National MAT Conference” making Thursday 23rd March a day of true collaboration for the multi academy trust sector.  

Following the National MAT Conference there will be a break before dusting off your best glad rags for the awards, doors opening at 6:00pm!

Testimonials

Thank you once again for allowing us to exhibit and present directly in the afternoon to the MATs attending. I know it was a lovely day but weather aside it felt wonderful to be back face to face and your conference was so friendly and inviting. I could see the hard work everyone was doing to make it so successful

Department For Education

“the whole event was really well organised and the choice of speakers and the range of topics were of excellent quality.
As a supplier, it was great to gain insight to understand the issues and concerns when considering growing or merging MATs, where the priorities are focused and the key learnings for those CEOs who have gone through the journey.
I would recommend attending a future Convenzis conference or event, as the quality was first class.”

Education Buying

The National MAT Conference was a great first show for us and produced a number of quality lead opportunities.

Quality of the attendees/delegates was great. The Convenzis team were professional and approachable throughout, and special thanks to Daniel for helping us swap stand positions to incorporate the SMART IFP.

Conversations with the MAT delegates who attended our stand on the day were positive and it was good to understand where they were currently in their Digital transformation journey post-pandemic.

A really positive great show. Our partner, Elementary Technology Ltd, also concurred that the quality of the delegates that attended were the right people and those key decision-makers.

Aver

“We were impressed by the excellent session line-up and quality of the audience. The team at Convenzis are friendly and were always on hand to help in the run-up. We’re looking forward to the MAT Growth & Merger Conference in October.”

The Key

“The MAT Growth & Merger Conference was a well organised, high-quality event that we thoroughly enjoyed being involved at. The team were professional and friendly, always available to help with our requests. The speakers and audience seniority was excellent, we look forward to continuing to be a part of Convenzis events in the future!”
