About the trust
The Priestley Academy Trust is a group of six schools located in Bradford, West Yorkshire.
The Trust was formed to create a local solution in providing outstanding education and to enable our schools to work together to increase our capacity for embedding and sustaining real school improvement for the benefit of our learners.
Vision
The Priestley Academy Trust’s vision is to offer an outstanding, transformational learning experience for each student with a strong emphasis on academic excellence, character development and public service.
Mission
Our mission as a Trust is “Together, creating opportunity and aspiration for every child”. This is our guiding statement which drives our operational and strategic strategies.
Values
Our ethos is defined by a values based approach to education where respect for human dignity is paramount. Values are important principles that drive behaviour. They influence our attitudes and actions and become our framework for living.
“The development I have received hasn’t just benefited me personally – it has directly impacted the wider school communities. The training has enabled me to mentor and upskill staff, share strategies that improve classroom practice."
Jennie Snowden, Direction of Inclusion
