The diversity of our schools is a key strength, and we work together to make a difference.   

We achieve more together.

Here are some recent examples of how we have worked collaboratively across the Foundation:

Foundation-wide Conference

Monday 8th January saw our first Foundation wide online conference as a group of 14 schools. Following a theme of ‘Creating a Culture of Collaboration’, the conference provided opportunities for staff from across the Foundation to engage with a wide range of professional development opportunities. There were over 90 sessions delivered by more than 50 different presenters, including sessions delivered by our Foundation Leaders of Education with a subject specific focus.

A highlight was  the morning keynote from the inspirational, Rev Steve Chalke, Founder of Oasis UK, on the value of working together.  This was followed by workshops and presentations on a vast range of topics delivered by experts including Professor Rob Coe on feedback to support students’ learning, Fiona Aubrey Smith on the impact of technology in the classroom, Marcus Shepherd’s discussion on the importance of racial diversity in leadership and Sam Ramsey’s valuable insights around autism in girls.
