Well actually, while threatening redundancies, Simon Beamish, the CEO of the trust, took home between £350-360K last year. That could be 10 teachers!

Well actually, maybe LAT could have a look elsewhere to save money before making educators redundant?

No teacher should face the choice of delivering a diminished curriculum because of funding shortages or leaving the profession. Cuts hurt education and push educators out. It’s time to invest in education properly. #FundFairPay
