This prestigious national recognition celebrates trusts that demonstrate an exceptional commitment to inclusion, equity and high-quality provision for all learners. Being shortlisted is a significant achievement and affirms that inclusive values are firmly embedded at the heart of everything we do as a Trust.

Our schools work relentlessly to ensure that children and young people feel understood, supported and empowered to thrive. Our inclusive approach is grounded in strong, evidence-informed practice, close collaboration with families, and a shared belief that every learner deserves access to excellent education within their local community.

We are thrilled that our practice has been recognised at a national level. This shortlisting reflects the dedication, expertise and shared values of staff across the Trust, alongside the strong partnerships we build with parents, carers and external agencies to support our children and young people.

We are immensely proud of this achievement and would like to thank our staff and families for their ongoing commitment to creating welcoming, inclusive and aspirational school communities.

Winners of the TES Schools Awards 2026 will be announced at the awards ceremony on 19 June.
