Welcome to The Endeavour Foundation
The Endeavour Foundation is a charity which supports the work of our Trust. The foundation creates an infrastructure for our ‘Cradle to Career’ model, supports the work of our convening partnerships and generates income which enables investment in our collective impact projects.
Contextually there are significant challenges in schools that are complex, deep rooted and produce major barriers which children and young people have to overcome if they are to lead lives of choice and opportunity. While great schools have an integral role to play in looking to address these complex issues, we recognise that they cannot do so alone and must work in partnership if children are to flourish and thrive.
Our foundation is working to secure five outcomes for our pupils to ensure that they can thrive:
The Foundation is focused on supporting a range of exciting innovations across our academies and our communities, focusing on those children who most need it.
Our Convening Partnerships
We have created cross-sector convening groups to harness the expertise and insight of multiple people and organisations in Middlesbrough, with 40 people from 25 organisations, representing nine different sectors already on board.
We have outlined three key areas to focus on; health inequalities, worsening NEET data and rising child poverty levels.
Our three work streams of health, families and futures seek to develop a collective impact approach to supporting our schools in forging more integrated provision of support for children and young people.
You can see in ‘Our Projects’ some of the ways these groups have already turned talk into action and created meaningful impact for better outcomes and brighter futures.
