Mission & Values
Our mission and values are more than statements; they are the reason we exist, the driving force behind everything we do, and the difference we make in society. They guide our decisions, shape our culture, and inspire us to serve with purpose.
Why do we exist?
To empower everyone in our communities, especially the most disadvantaged, to succeed.
How do we behave?
Everything we do is guided by three core values:
We are kind – showing care and supporting each other.
We have integrity – doing the right thing and always putting children first.
We work with diligence - overcoming obstacles and having no excuses.
What do we do?
We run schools that focus on academic excellence, cultural capital and the development of character.
How will we succeed?
We have three strategic anchors that guide our success:
A culture of excellence - making sure everything we do is of an exceptionally high standard, so our pupils get the very best education. We recognise excellence is not about perfection; it is about striving to be better every day, learning from our experiences and celebrating progress.
Academic focus - we will deliver an exceptional curriculum to provide every child with the knowledge, skills, character development and cultural capital they need to succeed. We want to create a love of learning that lasts a lifetime.
Purposeful collaboration - providing opportunities for all staff to share best practice, solve problems and work together in creating a unified approach to achieving our mission.
Every member of our trust community—staff, pupils, and families—plays a role in this shared mission. Together, we are working to create a brighter future for all.
