The Greater Manchester Education Trust is committed to ensuring equality of education and opportunity for all students, staff, parents and carers receiving services from the Trust, irrespective of race, gender, sexuality, disability, faith or religion or socio-economic background. We aim to recruit governors from diverse backgrounds in order to support our schools in the development of cohesive communities. We collect data to help us monitor the diversity of our Trust board and members as well as the membership of our local committees, however the data sample size is too small to publish without breaching personal privacy.
