Teachers in two of the trusts mostly agreed that their trust provides access to centralised resources, while those in the third largely disagreed. But regardless of their access to centralised resources, teachers across all three trusts were rather sceptical of their value. These findings suggest trust leaders need to find a careful balance between providing centralised resources and allowing teachers to exercise their professional autonomy. Teachers in all three trusts mostly disagreed that their trust encourages collaboration between teachers in their school. Similarly, while there is some variation in responses, most teachers in all three also disagreed that their trust encourages collaboration between teachers in the same specialism across the different trust schools.
