What happens to staff if a school acquires a Trust?
The staff of a Trust school are employed by the governing body, not the Trust this is the same position as in other foundation schools. There is no change of employer if a foundation or voluntary aided school becomes a Trust school. Where a community or voluntary controlled school becomes a Trust school, the staff will be protected by TUPE because their employer will change from the local authority to the governing body. Teaching staff will continue to be employed under the terms of the School Teachers Pay and Conditions Document.
