The Alliance Multi Academy Trust was formed in April 2018 and is currently made up of seven schools: two infant schools, two junior schools and three primary schools. TAMAT came together to provide the best education for our children through the best staff and systems. We have a clear focus on leadership, teaching, governance, professional development and collaboration at every level of the Trust.

TAMAT has a centralised business team who are key to providing timely expertise and efficient service across our schools. This allows our schools the important task of managing and focusing on their curriculum but also provides expertise in finance, HR and compliance when schools need it.

TAMAT has an experienced, committed Trust Board with a wide range of skills who provide robust challenge to the Executive Team as set out in the Scheme of Delegation. In addition, each Academy has its own Local Academy Board who meet regularly to provide support and challenge at a local level. TAMAT has clear reporting structures that keep everyone within the Trust informed.

The focus of TAMAT is to serve our schools and ensure we provide the best education possible for our children.

Our Vision

TAMAT will be an aspirational Multi Academy Trust that is a fully resourced alliance of like-minded high-achieving schools of up to 7,500 children.

Our Ethos

• Our academies place learning at the heart of our communities.
• Our academies pool our resources for deepening and nourishing education for fullness of life.
• Our academies improve the life chances of all our children, so that they develop wisdom, hope, and a sense of community and dignity.
• Each academy's unique ethos and values, whether secular or faith-based, are valued, celebrated and enrich the whole MAT.
• We develop our people well enough, so they can leave, we treat them well enough to stay.

Our Core School Values:

• All our academies have a belief in a child-centred approach to education and a commitment to raising the aspirations, achievements and well-being of every one of our children and staff and being a valuable member of the community.
• Every child will have access to high-quality education through the best teachers and the best resources.
• Every parent should be well-informed and helped to support their child to flourish.
• Every member of the TAMAT team knows the difference they make and is supported to be the best they can be.
