Trust Theologically Rooted Christian Vision
Our Trust prides itself on its professionalism and the ability to put the needs of learners, families and staff first. We ensure that pupils are challenged so that they reach the highest expectations, but they do so in a nurturing and caring environment. Our schools and Trust fully understand our learners and their needs, and this is at the centre of all that we do. We find the talents of our pupils and staff and ensure that they have an opportunity to develop that talent so that they can be the best and exceed all possible expectations. Our Trust is committed to improving the life chances of all children. We aim to develop a family of outstanding academies where world-class leaders and teachers put children at the heart of all they do. Archbishop Temple Multi Academy Trust is founded in the values of Faith, Hope and Love firmly rooted in the Christian faith, working together with God.
Each of our academies is recognised for its own distinctive and inclusive Christian ethos demonstrating its unique Christian character under its own theologically rooted, contextually appropriate vision by providing an inspirational and holistic education which enables all to flourish.
All our schools work with their local communities, Local Governance Committees, churches, parishes and the wider Diocesan Board of Education to develop and maintain theirdistinctive schools visions which drive all the work they do whilst continuing to and aligning with the wider vision of the Trust. The SIAMS inspection framework is used by each of our schools as an indicator of how the school’s vision drives the work they do and how it enables them to live up to their foundation as a church school.
The Inspection framework alongside the Church of England Education Office’s publication ‘Our Hope for a Flourishing Schools System: Deeply Christian, Serving the Common Good’ also provides a tool against which to reflect on the central functions of our Trust and ensure the wider Christian vision is the driving force for all the work we do within and across our family of schools. This document outlines how work carried out centrally is driven by our mission and vision and how this work supports individual academies to do the same.
