Our Trust
Aletheia Academies Trust is a growing family of academies, serving children and young people from early years through to post-16 education. Our Trust includes nurseries, primary and secondary schools, sixth forms, Special Resource Provisions (SRPs), and all-through schools, united by a shared commitment to high expectations, strong values, and inclusive education.
Aletheia is committed to sustaining high-quality academies as well as supporting those in need of specific improvement. Our focus is to provide school improvement services that draw on the wealth of practice from across our Trust, broaden the expertise available to schools through flexible working arrangements and increase our capacity to respond quickly to the needs of individual schools. Pedagogical excellence is at the heart of all we do, with a sustained focus on collaborative and mastery learning.
Aletheia has Teacher Training ‘Hub’ status. This assists its recruitment, training and retention of staff, providing the start of many successful careers.
History of the Trust
At Aletheia, our aim has always been to build a sustainable model that allows us to carry out the function of a civic institution; to encourage and support schools to improve provision, opportunities and outcomes for local children.
Saint George’s converted to academy status as a Single Academy Trust (SAT) in 2011. With Shorne C of E Primary School and St. Botolph's C of E Primary School, St George's established Aletheia Academies Trust was established in late 2014 with a commitment to developing high-quality academies.
Since then, Aletheia has grown in strength, capacity and expertise as a Multi-Academy Trust. Today, we serve pupils across a diverse range of academies, supported by a central team that works alongside schools to enable strong leadership, effective governance and sustained improvement – always keeping children and young people at the centre of everything we do.
