There are currently 21 primary schools in the Trust which range in size and nature from small and village based to large and town based, largely around central Cornwall. We opened Sky Academy, an eco-school near St Austell, in September 2022 and have a number of schools actively seeking to work with us. Our growth strategy is based on three principles: existing links where possible with a school through our outreach work so we know it well, geographical proximity to current schools and our capacity and expertise to make a difference to that school. .
Our moral purpose is based on supporting primary aged children in Cornwall to have the best possible education whether that is directly in our Trust or through the outreach and support work we can offer. The Trust hosts the Teaching School Hub for Cornwall West and the Isles of Scilly, and in collaboration with the Teaching School Hub for Cornwall that operates the OneCornwall Teaching School Hub Partnership. The Trust is also the home of the county’s English hub and also the educational research hub.
This trust is about children; we want our children to thrive, to be safe, to learn, and to be able to work anywhere in the world - although most will choose to stay! That is the focus of the Trustees and of the senior team - every day, every week.
