Established in 2016, our Trust operates schools across Leicester and Leicestershire, working with children between the ages of 2 and 16. We are a Trust that prides itself in working within deprived and challenging areas, determined to improve the life chances of all of the children we work with.

Collaboration is at the heart of all of our activity, and whilst all of our schools work in diverse and often challenging contexts, our school communities pull together to support each other overcome the challenges they face.

We value our students, families and staff. We invest in our stakeholders and work with them to be the very best they can be. We listen to their views and respond to ensure that we continue our quest for constant improvement.

We invest in our staff. Our Continuous Professional Development programme draws on the very best we have to offer within our Trust whilst engaging with local partners in order to ensure our staff are highly trained and highly competent as a result. This investment ensures that we are at the cutting edge of current educational practice and at the forefront of innovation.

We challenge existing practice and constantly search for new ideas and solutions. We are on a constant search for improvement and we walk towards new challenges and ways doing things. We have a culture of innovation that supports the implementation of new ideas and staff get exited about stepping in to the unknown and trying things out for the first time.

We care deeply about making a difference and make every effort to remove barriers that get in the way of us supporting everyone we work with. We celebrate the successes and support each other through the challenges, working together as one family of schools for the benefit of the communities we serve.
