At Orwell MAT, children are at the heart of everything we do, and we ensure that every decision we make is serving the children of the Trust equally. Our mission is to create schools where learning is unstoppable and aspirations have no limit, enabling all children to flourish, no matter what their starting point or needs. Everyone in Orwell MAT takes collective responsibility for success across the Trust and we work together to bring about the best outcomes across all of our schools. We ensure that there is equality of experience and opportunity for all children, no matter which school they attend.
We believe that we amount to more than the sum of our parts; membership of our Trust leads to better experiences and outcomes for the pupils, staff, and the communities our schools serve.
Within our schools we have good and outstanding practice which is resulting in excellent outcomes. We have a cohesive leadership team who trust one another enough to have productive, honest debate and challenge, and hold one another to account. We have the capacity and commitment to work with other schools to support them in their journey to excellence. We understand the need for challenge and support, with a rigorous, tenacious approach in the pursuit of excellence. We believe that by working with other schools we can have a positive impact on standards in education across Suffolk and beyond.
