As part of our Trust’s commitment to ‘living our values into being’ we start this year by thanking colleagues and our wider school family for the incredible contribution to our ongoing Big Conversation. In later issues we will provide an update on the progress of our three project groups created after the conversation about our value, Educate: Technology Project, Culture, Health & Wellbeing Project and Education beyond the Curriculum Project. Before the summer break, colleagues, governors and our community started the next Big Conversation looking at our value, Empower. This conversation focuses on how we can empower our pupils, colleagues and wider communities to bring about change and lead our Trust forward.

Follow our journey here as we explore pupil aspiration, resilience and social mobility in addition to empowering our colleagues in their personal and professional development.
