Understanding the changing role of company secretary for academy trusts
04 June 2024
With significant changes in company law and DfE requirements recently, it’s more important than ever to gain a good understanding of the changing role of company secretary for academy trusts.
This webinar was free to attend and opened to all. It would be particularly useful if you work as the company secretary for an academy trust or in a supporting or related governance role.
What we covered:
- Your academy trust and Company Law
- Company secretarial requirements and duties
- Principles of good governance
- Companies House Compliance
- The changing legislative and regulatory landscape
Why should you have attended?
Our aim was to send you away with confidence in the understanding of your duties and responsibilities and how to carry out the tasks assigned to you to ensure legal and regulatory compliance.
We dispelled some myths and gave some support in a quite niche area where corporate and education law combine – which is where our expertise and team come in.
