Trinity Academy St Chad’s (TASC) was the second primary school to join the Trinity MAT family of schools. Driven by a strong Christian ethos and vision of ‘Proud to be Growing and Succeeding Together’, our academy aspires to be a supportive family community that values, supports and makes a positive difference to every child.
We are unashamed of the high standards that we set for our pupils; high standards of learning and participation, of presentation and of behaviour. All of our pupils are polite, have impeccable manners and pride themselves in following the Trinity Academy St Chad’s Absolutes at all times.
Last academic year was an exciting year for TASC. Not only did we open the doors to a fully renovated and newly resourced academy, we also saw the building of Trinity MAT Earthshot Science Lab – something that we are very proud of.
It was also a year of official, external validation, with Ofsted, SIAMS and World Class Schools Quality Mark coming through our doors.
We are delighted and proud to announce that our school has been awarded an Ofsted Good rating with Outstanding Features. Our glowing report reflects the unwavering dedication and hard work of our pupils, staff and the entire school community. Ofsted recognised the excellent quality of teaching, the remarkable progress made by our pupils and the exceptional support provided to learners of all abilities.
SIAMS praised the academy for the positive, caring culture and feeling that permeates throughout our corridors, highlighting that we are courageous in our decision-making in doing the very best for our pupils.
Finally, receiving the World Class Schools Quality Mark was an exceptional achievement for our young people and marked us as the only World Class primary school in Calderdale – something that we are very proud of.
We remain committed to providing an exceptional educational experience and look forward to building on this success in the future.
