We are keen to hear from you if you are considering joining a trust and think we might be good fit. We are looking
for schools who share our aims and vision and are committed to making a real difference to the life chances of
students from the Tees Valley and beyond.
Joining a trust can be an exciting journey for a school and we think we have a lot to offer. The first thing to do is to get in touch and start the conversation. We promise that there will be no 'hard sell' and we do not have a prescribed way of doing things. Let's start off by exploring what we can offer each other and take it from there. If you would like to open a discussion, get in touch!
Get in touch: Louisa RobsonAs we get to know each other better, we will look to collaborate on areas where there could be mutual benefit. There are several ways we can share our expertise and work together on tailor-made partnerships. Informal collaborations recently have included:
We understand that joining a trust is a big decision and not one that any Headteacher or Governing Body will take lightly. Following preliminary
explorations and informal collaborations between schools and our trust, those schools who do decide to take the relationship further are encouraged to join
as 'associate members'. We believe this option gives greater peace of mind for our partner schools and an opportunity to bring certainty that joining our
trust is the right decision for your organization.
We currently have one associate member, Hopefields School. Hopefields is a small 11-18 school for pupils with social, emotional and/or health needs. They
offer alternative provision for young people who are hard to reach, hard to place or at risk of exclusion. Macmillan Academy developed a relationship with
Hopefields which has been mutually beneficial to both schools. Hopefields support Macmillan students through their specialist provision and offer the
academy general advice around alternative provision. Endeavour Academies Trust central services provide additional capacity to Hopefields, whilst Macmillan
Academy is supporting the development of Hopefields' curriculum, especially in mathematics. This is an example of a successful recent partnership with
scope for further strengthening and development in the future.
When the time is right, associate members will be given the option to join our trust as full members. Before formalizing membership, a process of due
diligence will be carried out.
We have experience in dealing with academies, local authority schools, single academy trusts and specialist schools so whether you are already an academy
or need support with conversion we can help and will confidently guide you along the process.
Inspiring Futures.
