This is MET POD — your on‑the‑go professional learning from across our Trust. Hear practical ideas, real experiences, and the voices shaping how we teach, lead, and support one another. MET Pod: Voices that Grow Our Trust.
In the first episode of the new series of MET POD, host Chloe Bateman sits down with Jon Peck, CEO of Maiden Erlegh Trust, for an honest conversation about leadership, change, and steering a growing multi-academy trust through uncertain times.
Jon shares his unorthodox path to the top, from accountant to CEO, and reflects on what it really means to lead: operating in the "grey", surrounding yourself with great people, and staying agile when the sector shifts beneath your feet. He also opens up about the biggest challenges facing MATs right now, and why he believes the trusts that will thrive are those willing to shape the future rather than wait for it.
