Our Vision And Ethos:


EQUA’s ambition is to leave the world a better place than we found it.

We do this through our children. By enabling our pupils to find their place in the world, and by arming them with the tools to help to make the world a better place.

So, we give every child every chance of a great education, that way they have every chance of carving out their place in the world.

We blend education with sustainability, environmentalism, adaptability and multi-culturalism – so that the world can be a slightly better place for having EQUA pupils in it.

We live by one word, equity – the inalienable right of every child to an education that will give them every chance in life. We invest in our children, so that they reap the return throughout their lives, and cumulatively, the world benefits.

It demands EQUA provides the highest educational standards for every child – from 2 to 19 – through a progressive, challenging, aspirational and broad curriculum, excellent teaching, superb pastoral care, great facilities and exceptional opportunities, for all.

There is no one formula. We recognise the unique talents of every child, and help them to flourish as individuals. How? By building joined-up education around each pupil, from nursery to primary to secondary school – so we can build richness, diversity and deep understanding into each child’s educational journey.

Our standards are high, but we never standardise. EQUA values and actively maintains the unique nature of all the schools within the Trust. As individual schools we are brilliant, but as a community of schools we will be exceptional.
