27 January 2024

In January, our platform took centre stage with a webinar addressing the timely theme of Mergers & Acquisitions in the education sector. As schools increasingly explore this strategic avenue for long-term planning, as indicated by the Confidence Index 2023, the discussion generated considerable excitement and interest.

We were thrilled to have Sian Champkin, Partner at VWV, and Daniel Wellings, Founder of The Divergent School Group, alongside Duncan Murphy, our Director of Education, sharing insights on crucial aspects.

The session delved into the reasons schools might contemplate such a move, initiating the conversation, exploring diverse pathways, and steering clear of potential pitfalls.
