For federations

Share governance across federated schools.

Federations sit between single academies and full MATs. govern.school handles the ‘soft grouping’ shape, shared governance, separate schools, no legal consolidation.

Soft groupings

Federated, but not consolidated.

Federated schools share a governing body but remain legally separate. The product handles that, shared committees and shared documents where useful, school-specific where not.

  • Federated schools can share a governing body
  • Shared committees with governors visible across schools
  • Each school’s policies and portal remain its own
Trust home showing schools listed in the side panel and the primary rail with multiple workspaces — the same shape used for federations
Single login

Governors don’t log in twice.

A federated governor sits on one body that governs multiple schools. One login, one inbox, one calendar, and the right scope for the right meeting.

  • Cross-school memberships in a single federation
  • One calendar across all federated schools
  • Per-school document scoping where appropriate
Bespoke

Federations vary. We’ll fit yours.

No two federations are quite the same. We work with you to model your federation accurately, which committees are shared, which policies are common, which schools sit inside which sub-group.

  • Federation modelled during onboarding
  • Dedicated implementation contact on the Federation plan
  • Custom invoicing & PO support

Run your federation in govern.school.

Federation pricing is custom, book a demo and we’ll talk through your structure.
