Strategy

Our calling as an educational trust is simple but profound: that every child achieves their God-given potential.

We believe that every child, in everschool, every day, should have every opportunity to flourish.

Children get one shot at school

That belief underpins this strategy and drives our ambition for each pupil. We are uncompromising in our commitment that no child is left behind, and that success is defined by every pupil reaching their next steps best prepared, having thrived in their safe and welcoming school encouraged all the way by staff who make them feel loved and that they belong.

This strategy builds on the strong foundations laid by our Vision for 2025. That season focused on growth: on enlarging the place of our tent [Isaiah 54.2].

This next phase is different. In the word of Isaiah, it is a season to strengthen what we already have: to tighten our cords and to secure our stakes. The vision that arises from this calling is unapologetically child centred. We want to create the conditions in which great teaching, strong support and inclusive practice can
thrive. Pupils’ safety, wellbeing and learning sit at the centre of every decision we make. Strong relationships matter because pupils learn best when they are known, trusted and supported by adults who care deeply about them.
