3. How do you feel about this vision?

The Aspire Community Learning Trust will establish a long term sustainable partnerships with a wide variety of other organisations in order to support and deliver outstanding localised, co-ordinated provision for children and young people and the wider community.

The vision we have for our proposed Education Trust is of a strong partnership that helps us to:

•  Develop exceptional teaching for all our learners.

•  Increase the level of aspiration and opportunities for our community.

•  Realise the potential of every young person in our community.

•  Ensure excellent employment prospects for our learners.

•  Improve the experience of transition for our learners at each key stage.

•  Build on the existing strong links between our schools

•  Develop our partnership with our parents and the wider community.

•  Develop stronger partnerships with other education providers and employers for the benefit of all our children and families.

Working as a shared trust will clarify our vision and aims, raise expectation and standards, and make our existing collaboration more sustainable. We believe it will help our children and young people achieve even more than they do now. We aim to provide the high quality education for all children and young people in our communities by working together and promoting community cohesion.

4. Trust Forum

In addition to a minority of governors being appointed by the Trust the cooperative model gives all stakeholders - parents/carers, staff, children and the local community an opportunity to meet as part of a ‘Trust Forum’ (two or three times a year) to discuss the work of the Trust so the community have a greater ‘say’ in the direction of local education.
