Welcome to Blackdown Education Partnership

The Blackdown Education Partnership is a multi-academy trust (MAT) working across Devon and Somerset. It was born of a merger between two established MATs: The Castle Partnership Trust and Uffculme Academy Trust and currently looks after a family of 10 schools: 5 primary and 5 secondary and 3 nurseries.

Blackdown Education Partnership is, therefore, a single organisation established to deliver the education and to safeguard the wellbeing of every child in our Trust. The Partnership seeks to ensure that high quality collaboration and system leadership continue to improve the education in our schools. We are responsible for the good governance of the schools within our Trust and are accountable for the performance of each school. We work with an exceptional team of leaders, teachers and support staff whose combined efforts deliver on our promise to believe in every child.

Our Mission

Blackdown Education Partnership (the Trust) is a Multi Academy Trust (MAT) whose mission is to enable effective collaboration and partnerships that will support outstanding educational experiences for the pupils attending each of the Trust’s schools and academies.

Our mission is underpinned by our core beliefs and values that:

  • To nurture and develop the ambition, talents and interests of every child
  • To break down the barriers that inhibit the opportunities and achievements of disadvantaged pupils so that they can go on to lead lives of choice and opportunity
  • To create a family of schools that are deeply and purposefully connected to their communities

The Trust is creating and supporting a network of exceptional schools in which:

  • each school within the Trust sits at the heart of its community
  • aspirations and expectations are high, and achievable, for everyone
  • every pupil makes excellent progress and is enabled to achieve ambitious personal targets
  • trust and mutual respect are at the core of all the relationships across the Trust
  • enrichment is valued, planned for and resourced
  • diversity is welcomed and celebrated
  • pupil and parental engagement is high
  • collaboration and partnerships across the Trust mean that all our staff may apply and develop their skills and experience, and
  • teachers enjoy teaching and pupils enjoy learning.
