Job Description
The King Edward VI Foundation, Birmingham
The King Edward VI Foundation, Birmingham, is a progressive charitable organisation that has supported excellence in education across the City since 1552. Our schools are diverse in nature but share a common purpose and commitment to achieving our mission: “making Birmingham the best place to be educated in the UK.”
Our Academy Trust currently consists of two independent schools, six selective academies, and five non-selective academies. Our recent expansion into a wider diversity of local communities is enabling us to accelerate our strategies for improving the life chances of young people in Birmingham, whatever their background.
The King Edward VI Academy Trust Birmingham (“the Academy Trust”) was established in 2017 and is made up of the academies outlined above. The academies receive back-office central support services, including governance, from the Foundation Office (a central support services function), with several staff members being seconded from the Foundation to deliver support services to both the Academy Trust and the academies themselves.
Our highly focused five-year strategy aims to build on our existing strengths and heritage, delivering an ambitious growth strategy that will bring in a further five academies over the next five years.
