Welcome to the Athelstan Trust.
Our Multi-Academy Trust is an organisation in which children, staff and parents can feel part of a caring, collaborative and excellent community.
We are a Multi-Academy Trust of five secondary schools and one primary school in Wiltshire, Gloucestershire and South Gloucestershire. From September 2023, we are excited to welcome another primary school and this will further enrich our collaborative strengths. Established in 2015, the Athelstan Trust aims to achieve the best for, and from, each child. We intend to enable each child to realise their full academic, creative and physical potential and to develop positive social and moral values.
Believing that successful schools are rooted in their local community, we respect and value the individual nature and ethos of our schools while knowing we are more effective when we work together and support each other. Celebrating spiritual and creative diversity, success, and lifelong learning is important to us. We are inclusive and collaborative and promote a culture of openness and integrity.
We are absolutely committed to raising educational standards for all the children in our schools. We believe in developing the talents and skills of all our staff and students.
We seek applicants who share our vision and values.
We look forward to receiving your application.
Best wishes,
Tim Gilson
