We are a dynamic and growing family of Primary, Secondary, and Special Schools, proudly serving communities from Birmingham to Bury. Sponsored by the charity Shaw Trust, our mission is to unlock opportunity for every young person--whatever their background, ability, or starting point.

Our

people are our greatest asset

, and we are deeply committed to their growth. Through high-quality training, apprenticeships, talent acceleration, and research opportunities, we empower our staff to thrive as skilled, confident professionals and we champion wellbeing, value every voice, and create a culture where you feel supported, motivated, and inspired to make a real difference.

You will join a collaborative network of schools where shared expertise and professional community fuel success. Every academy in our Trust has an equal voice, and every colleague plays a vital part in shaping tailored learning experiences that raise aspirations and build brighter futures.

At the heart of our work is a deep respect for the children and young adults we serve--our "precious cargo." We are proud to

"exactly like nothing else" and

bridge the gap between education and the wider world, preparing every student for further education, employment, or training in inclusive environments where

integrity, equality, and opportunity thrive

Our Trust-wide, evolving

3D Primary Curriculum

and forward-thinking

Digital Strategy

are crafted to spark curiosity, fuel imagination, and immerse children in energetic, meaningful learning. We are building more than just knowledge--we're nurturing confidence, creativity, and a deep love of learning. Our schools are caring, stimulating places where children feel safe, empowered, and fully prepared for the journey ahead.

We know just how crucial these early years are! Research shows that the quality of primary education has the single greatest impact on a child's academic growth--and their social and emotional development too, but we also know we are not in this alone. A child's earliest experiences, shaped by strong partnerships between home, preschool, and school, form the foundation for lifelong success. That's why we value our families as essential partners in every step of the journey.

Unlike other MATs, we embrace the diversity of our schools and communities, and we support each one to develop bespoke programmes of study that reflect their unique context--programmes that help children explore deeper, think bigger, and dream bolder.

Our pledge is simple and powerful: to enable every child to thrive.
