Executive Pay Report 2025
Cornerstone Academy Trust follows the robust guidance set by the Department for Education when setting or reviewing executive salaries, so they are set at fair, reasonable and justified levels.
The Board of Trustees take accountability for this and through consistent scrutiny, challenge the Trust on salary levels. We are confident that as a Trust we are following guidance to ensure that salary levels are justifiable and provide the best value of money for our ambitions and growing Trust of schools.
