Staffordshire University Academies Trust

Our Trust’s aspirations are reflected in the culture and ethos of the academies, in the way in which our communities are built upon sensitivity, tolerance and the appreciation of difference; at the heart of our work is the education of the young people in our care. There is a whole Trust ethos based on Rights, Respect and Responsibility.

We are committed to providing a stimulating, varied and broad education. Our academies offer a wide range of extra activities as well as aspiring to good and outstanding academic standards. We want our pupils to be genuinely involved in the life of our academies, participating in decisions, interested in their learning and valuing the opportunities they have had. We are proud of their achievements, the quality of our teaching and the pastoral care we provide. We want our young people to leave our academies with ambition, an appetite for learning and the confidence to encounter the challenges and changes that will inevitably face them.

Our vision is to achieve better outcomes for all of our young people by:

• raising standards of pupil progress by focussing on the core business of learning and teaching
• delivering a skills-based curriculum that is tailored to individual learning needs
• promoting the spiritual, moral, social, emotional and cultural development of every learner
• working together to maximise the power of mutual collaboration and support
• sharing resources, staff, areas of expertise and facilities to achieve economies of scale
• developing highly effective leadership at all levels and seeking to pool strategic capacity.
