Codifying Our Culture

All multi academy trusts work in slightly different ways.  At St Benet’s we are driven by our core values which can be distilled down to:
Immeasurably more than we can imagine.  Creating a culture of aspiration for all.

Headteachers run our schools.  Schools retain a significant amount of autonomy.  Unless the school is in a challenging situation we do not prescribe curricula, behaviour or pedagogical approaches.  We support schools in implementing and embedding approaches and practices that work for their community.

As a Trust it is our role to create the aspirational culture in which all our staff work.  To do this we have specific areas where we align schools so that their collaborative work can have the maximum impact on standards.  The Trust creates this culture through the mechanisms laid out below.  

We offer support and challenge to our leaders in the following key areas:

• Curriculum Design
• Curriculum Delivery
• Developing Leaders
• Accurate Evaluation & Planning
• Data Informed Decision-making and Accountability
• High Aspirations for All
