I AM

LOOKING TO
JOIN A TRUST

MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR

Like minded schools, all with their own identity, each school in our Trust is distinct and rightly proud of its own unique journey and heritage. Being part of our Trust changes none of that.

We passionately believe in supporting schools to build on established character, values, commitments and community partnerships. It is this track record of building communities which sits at the heart of our award-winning approach to genuine and lasting partnership. We are expert at collaborating on the ground, building trust, and adapting to the unique setting of each school.

A relationships based organisation, we recognise that people make the difference and matter most. We have a collective passion to make all our schools excellent, and offer a full team approach to leading and supporting schools. No-one is left alone and isolated in their work to continually raise standards and rise to the challenges they may face.

Our professional network of school leaders, specialist teachers, expert curriculum, SEND, strategic leadership colleagues, COO and central support staff work as a team across all settings to share ideas, spread best practice, support and constructively challenge each other, to bring out our very best.

By providing leadership, deploying resources, and enabling access to effective inclusive practice, we give all our schools the tools they need to continually improve. Economies of scale also enables investment in our schools to deliver the best possible outcomes for children. This extends to investment in creative, technology rich learning environments, libraries and IT suites.

Together we are delivering some of the region’s best academic outcomes, real and lasting improvements and, as a result, have grown in size in recent years. We look forward to welcoming new schools into our family; to learning and growing with our new colleagues, and together shaping future focussed educational best practice, for the benefit and maximum inclusion of all our children and communities.
