I am very proud to be the CEO of the Brighter Futures Learning Partnership Trust; it is a privilege to work with passionate, like-minded colleagues who are all focussed on delivering the best educational provision for the children and young people of Doncaster. We are a multi-academy trust serving the local needs of our community with great passion; we have a team of highly committed staff, governors, local businesses and trustees who are committed to creating and delivering a world-class trust vision.

A big vision lies at the heart of the Brighter Futures Learning Partnership Trust; it is to be one of the highest performing and unique trusts in the country which acknowledges that every child is different and, as such, our curriculum offer will be shaped to reflect the diversity of our learners and their needs if they are to excel and develop into the next generation of highly skilled learners and innovators.

Our vision is to create teaching and learning which is inspirational, challenging and relevant to the 21st century where every child and young person can fulfil their potential. We are also committed to developing outstanding pastoral care which we know is an essential ingredient in ensuring that every child can flourish to develop the knowledge, skills and attributes which will enable them to have the widest possible choice of career pathways.

We are unique in that our family of schools includes four primary schools, an infant school, an 11-16 secondary school and Doncaster UTC from 2020, offering an unrivalled breadth of provision and learning experiences. Two of these schools are also designated Teaching Schools and have a strong history of school-to-school support.

We have a genuine commitment to collaborative working and sharing of the best practice whilst understanding the need to retain our schools’ individual ethos and strong sense of identity. We are totally committed to providing the best learning opportunities to promote the achievements of all children, young people and staff as we believe this enables them to grow as individuals and be the best they can be.
