Our Vision & Ethos

“Being the best we can be by uniting schools, communities and families to secure success for all young people.”

ALT is committed to creating a context for all children and young people to thrive academically, personally and socially, so that they experience the real joy of learning. We ensure that everyone within our Trust community has the opportunity to succeed through collaboration between the schools within the Trust and with all stakeholders.

We aim to:

  • Enable all learners to leave our schools having achieved well, strengthened by our values and aspirations.

  • Ensure all learners are well prepared to face the next challenge in their learning, personal and social development.

  • Enable schools to work together, share expertise and maximise efficiency and effectiveness across the MAT.

Our Five Pillars for Success

  • We want all students to be the best they can be. We focus not just on academic achievement but also their personal development, so our students can go on to fulfilling lives and careers as responsible citizens.

  • We are the employer of choice, providing a great place in which to work and an environment where they can develop as exemplary professionals.

  • ALT academies are committed to meeting their children’s individual needs. We foster aspiration as well as academic, moral, personal and social development. An ALT school is the natural choice for the education and care of their children.

  • Our local ALT schools are respected and supported. We recognise the unique characteristics of the area and draw upon them to improve outcomes locally, regionally, nationally and globally.

  • We work closely with external agencies, including service providers, businesses, employers and other local stakeholders to enhance students’ learning and development.
