Our Trust

About the David Ross Education Trust

Our school is part of the David Ross Education Trust, a network of unique and diverse academies, committed to becoming one of the top-performing multi academy trusts in the country.

Recognised as one of 11 system leaders nationwide, our Trust works with 36 primary and secondary schools across the country.

The Trust’s schools range from smaller rural primaries with around 50 children, to much larger secondary schools in the centre of urban areas.

Working together, with a shared ethos and values, our close-knit family of schools allows pupils to begin and continue their world-class academic journey throughout primary and secondary school within the David Ross Education Trust.

A message from David Ross:

“It is my belief that British education needs to be broader in the experiences and opportunities that it provides for young people. The 21st-century workplace needs open-minded and creative thinkers who are able to address the challenges of our times.

“This is why a David Ross Education Trust education is compellingly different. As a leading multi-academy trust, we are committed to giving every student attending one of our schools a world-class education. An education that creates academically gifted, confident, well-rounded young people in the classroom, in the workplace and in their communities.

“We pride ourselves on our academic rigour, driven by talented, dedicated and inspiring teachers who help our students to fulfil their true potential. We believe in opening our students’ eyes to the world around them. We do this through the only academy-wide enrichment programme of its kind within the state education sector. A programme that gives our students access to the kinds of life-changing experiences normally only available at fee-paying schools.

“Our promise to every student at one of our schools is clear; we will help them to become their confident, academic best.”
