SSAT (The Schools Network) Limited (branded as SSAT, the Schools, Students and Teachers network) is a UK-based, independent educational membership organisation working with primary, secondary, special and free schools, academies and UTCs. It provides support and training in four main areas: teaching and learning, curriculum, networking, and leadership development.

The company was set up in May 2012,[2] to carry out the business of the previous Specialist Schools and Academies Trust.[5] Based in the UK, SSAT operates worldwide through its international arm, iNet.[6] SSAT has almost 3,000 member schools in England and overseas.

The Chief Executive of SSAT is Sue Williamson, a former headteacher of Monks' Dyke Technology College in Lincolnshire,[7] and former Strategic Director of Leadership, and Innovation at the Specialist Schools and Academies Trust.[8]
