Our Vision

ASPIRATION   COLLABORATION   EXCELLENCE

 

EPA is a Trust of a large 11-19 outstanding secondary school, an all-through primary/secondary school, and six primary schools which host five nurseries.

 

The purpose of the Trust is to sustain and improve good and outstanding schools, and to ensure the rapid improvement of schools which need support now (and in the future); also to act as a vehicle for enabling the sharing of best practice and the economies of scale to be achieved across the group of schools.

 

The EPA family of schools is dedicated to high academic achievement and developing well-rounded children. Our schools enable children to become successful learners, confident individuals and responsible citizens.

 

EPA schools enable staff to grow as professionals and focus on high social and academic expectations of learners.

 

We are dedicated to promoting evidenced-based best practice within our schools and our collaborative approach enables staff and learners to work together to develop learning.
