Damian Hinds to woo parents by ditching ‘academisation’ and ‘CEOs’ of ‘MATs’

That’s right, Damian, it’s the words that are the problem and if we just ditch the business jargon, all will be well.

Multi-academy trusts are to be rebranded School Trusts.

Not sure what academisation will be called (assimilation?), or CEOs (Money Sponges?). Suggestions welcome.

I was so hopeful from your title that academies were going to be banned!

Sorry, Need! But clearly your issue with academies is the name. You’ll feel much more positive about them once they’re called ‘Learning Is Fun Zones’.
