"There's a supportive and caring atmosphere. Senior leaders are aware of staff and pupil wellbeing and always consider ways this can be improved. I feel listened to."
"As a new headteacher into the trust, I value the collaborative ethos that runs through the central and leadership team. This allows me to utilise the expertise of the colleagues beyond our school."
"Working across the schools in the Connect Academy Trust has given me a unique insight into the way the 4 anchors are embedded within the way each schools works, whilst retaining their individual identity for their own communities."
"Our boy started school at Preston this year and what can I say, the school is fantastic! As our first child going to school we were naturally a little anxious but everyone at the school has made us and our son feel so welcome! I would highly recommend."
"We want the best for everyone who works in Connect Academy Trust. For our children to thrive, our staff need to feel confident, valued and encouraged in their roles. To that end, the Trust is committed to developing a professional learning community, where everyone has the right to be nurtured. We also want the best people to be working in Trust, so we develop talent and strength from within, whilst also being keen to bring in outstanding people from outside the Trust."
