We brought the TTN National School Estates Conference 2025 to a close with a panel discussion on ‘What does effective look like for estates?’ Thank you to all of our panellists - and to all of those who asked questions and stimulated an important and informative debate to close the day. Panellists were ask to leave delegates with ‘one big thing’ to think on 👇 ⭐️ Biodiversity and outdoor space ⭐️ Understanding what our children want nationally from estates. ⭐️ The ability to develop a digital data set that informs our decisions. ⭐️ The huge step forward of competency framework - you don’t know what you don’t know until you work it out. ⭐️ Remind yourself why a decision has been made on the design of a building and can you embrace it? ⭐️ Share your feedback, your examples and your evidence. #TTNConference2025 #SchoolEstates #TheTrustNetwork

Today’s opening welcome from James Miller, National Director of Sustainability and Infrastructure at Ormiston Academies Trust and Trust Network Coordinator, set the stage for an inspiring event.
