Multi-Academy Trusts
A curriculum solution that gives every child in your trust the same quality of education, with the flexibility for every school to make it their own.
Every child in your trust deserves the same quality education
As a MAT leader, you carry responsibility for every child across every school in your trust. You can see the variation, where curriculum quality is strong and where it isn’t. You know that imposing a rigid top-down solution won’t work. But you also know that leaving every school to figure it out independently isn’t the answer either.
Cornerstones gives MATs a third option. A high-quality, expertly sequenced curriculum and a digital platform powerful enough to give you visibility across your whole trust, while giving every school the flexibility to adapt it to their community, their context and their children.
The result is trust-wide curriculum consistency where it matters and autonomy where it counts.

See what's happening across your whole trust, in real time
Maestro’s MAT dashboard gives trust leaders a level of curriculum visibility that simply isn’t possible with spreadsheets or separate school systems. See curriculum coverage, pupil progress and assessment data across every school in your trust from a single view.
Every school works from the same coherent curriculum on the same platform, but with the ability to adapt, localise and enrich their version to reflect their own community and context. Trust-wide consistency and school-level autonomy, built into the same system.
And because Maestro is fully integrated with the Cornerstones Curriculum, every update to national curriculum content flows through automatically. Your whole trust stays aligned without anyone having to rebuild anything from scratch.
