As Chief Executive Officer of the Unity Education Trust (UET), I am delighted to offer you a warm welcome to our Trust.
Members of staff
Young people attending our schools
Unity Education Trust has expanded its family of schools and education professionals. Our collaborative work over the last 6 months has ensured a measured evolution into our new formal Trust arrangements. We’re welcoming outstanding teachers, subject specialists, tutors, support staff and experienced leaders with a record of transformation in education. We have also enhanced our central support services to ensure our schools continue to be supported to deliver exceptional service to our pupils, parents/carers and the local community.
Teachers, and support staff now number 795. All of our staff share the ethos of raising aspirations, unlocking potential and securing the best possible future for the 2700 young people attending our schools.
I am delighted with the transfer approval and believe the diverse education and services provided across mainstream, alternative provision / Specialist and social emotional and mental health will place Unity Education Trust in a unique position and create further opportunities for supporting pupil progress, achievement and well-being and continuous professional development for all staff through effective collaboration and sharing of practice.
Although pupils and parents / carers may notice little change at their individual schools where staff, pupil uniform and the school day will remain the same, they will see, as our two Trusts consolidate, the unrelenting commitment to achieve the very best outcomes for all our pupils across all settings regardless of their starting points and circumstances.
I am excited at the opportunities this new partnership will bring and I look forward to seeing our new Trust go from strength to strength. I will keep you all updated on our continuing developments.
UET is a Multi-Academy Trust built on developing like-minded schools to be outstanding education providers through collaborative working that develops a ‘unity of purpose’ in all that we do.
Our collaborative work ensures the development of outstanding teachers, subject specialists, tutors, support staff and experienced leaders with a record of transformation in education. We have strong central support services to ensure our schools continue to be supported to deliver exceptional service to our pupils, parents, carers and the local community.
All of our staff share the ethos of raising aspirations, unlocking potential and securing the best possible future for all young people attending our schools. We are committed to providing the best possible opportunities for all our learners and we continue to work hard to deliver outstanding education for learners from pre-school right up to age 19. Our school’s range in size from 20 to 1200 students and effective collaboration, across our schools, is an important part of who we are.
UET believes in setting high aspirations for all its learners and that all children, regardless of their background, ability or life experiences, can achieve high standards and flourish in outstanding education setting that cares for all. The Trust sets high expectations in every aspect of its work, providing learners with the best opportunities through outstanding teaching, the development of 21st century facilities, inspirational leadership and a continued thirst for learning.
We ensure that each of our academies maintains its unique identity at the heart of their communities, engaging with all partners and stakeholders and other high performing educational organisations.
These are exciting times for all those associated to UET.
I am proud that we are working in ‘Unity’ to meet the challenges in education head on and spearheading new developments for the benefit of all the children in our care.
