Governance
The Learning Through Action Trust (LTAT) was established on 10 May 1991.
The founding members were Annette Cotterill, Peter Wood Cotterill, the late Margaret Kaye, Anne Reilly, Jenny Murphy, and Ken Rhodes.
LTAT is the successor to "Learning Through Action", founded by Annette Cotterill in 1983, which operated as an unincorporated service provider, sponsored by the former Berkshire County Council.
As well as delivering children's workshops, much on the same lines as LTAT does today, it provided training in Learning Through Action methodology for teachers on a one-year diploma course, who were on secondment from Berkshire and other Local Education Authorities, and from overseas (eg Japan, Gambia, New Zealand).
