What the school offers its staff
The University Schools Trust (UST) is a unique partnership of six world-leading universities and four sector leading bodies who are working together to deliver a shared vision of inclusive, high quality and transformational education delivered by schools which are deeply rooted in the communities they serve.
We take a rigorous approach – educating from nursery to university and beyond – to all aspects of our work. Our teaching practice is effective, our students are challenged to achieve their best and we use our resources efficiently. Our values of communication, investigation, participation, networking, scholarship and vision are core to all our work. As a small, growing and dynamic trust. We are small enough to know and care about the professional development of every single employee, and through our influential trust partners we have increased the scope of our work and the opportunities available to students and our staff.
OUR VISION
To provide transformational educational opportunities for children across London, setting the agenda for
social mobility and sector-wide change.
MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission at UST is to improve the outcomes of all our pupils by ensuring we train, recruit and retain
the highest calibre of staff across our workforce. Our teaching practice will be research led in partnership
with our academic Trust sponsors and the evidence collated will influence local, national and international
policy. We will share our best practice with others, extending our success and influence. A critical mass of
schools will enable a flexible, school-to-school support structure which will ensure a platform to develop
school leaders. Leaders at all levels will provide a systematic succession plan for our schools.
