Within the trust we value partnership work and collaboration. The trust currently has five 11-16 academies in addition to Boston Spa, two of which are graded as Outstanding by Ofsted, and in 2016 the trust opened an Alternative Provision free school The Stephen Longfellow Academy (graded Good by Ofsted in October 2019), a direct partner to all of the academies in the trust. In addition to Elliott Hudson College and four primary academies, two of which have been graded by Ofsted as Outstanding, the trust also includes two Teaching Schools and the GORSE SCITT which is also graded Outstanding (Ofsted, 2017) adding testament to the fact that the trust is one of the highest performing Multi Academy trusts in the country.
