Recruiting The Very Best

Compass Eko Trust is a family of 28 schools working as one system to improve outcomes for every child.

We believe that where a child starts should never determine where they end up. Our commitment is clear: every child achieving, without exception. Through a knowledge-rich curriculum, strong professional collaboration and a shared commitment to excellence, we work together to secure the best outcomes for all children.

Our schools sit at the heart of everything we do. The Trust exists to bring clarity, consistency and support so leaders can focus on delivering excellent education in their communities. As a civic Trust, we play an active role in our local communities while maintaining each school’s identity.
