We seek to achieve our vision with a relentless determination to show our students and others we support, both within and beyond our Trust what is possible by:

  • Expecting excellence and achieving the highest standards for young people; encouraging them to have the highest aspirations for themselves.
  • Providing innovative training to staff so they are the best they can be.
  • Working collaboratively to ensure best practice across Trust schools and colleges and more widely so we continuously learn from one another.
  • Building a portfolio of experiences and network of partners to enrich students' experiences.
  • Providing a strong central services offer to allow leaders and teachers to focus on education.

Our Ethos is…

Our ethos is built upon a desire to create extraordinary opportunities for staff and students that they won't experience elsewhere, significantly improving their chances to progress, achieve and go on to succeed in the lives and careers they want and deserve.
