Vision for the Trust Schools
• An underlying entitlement that all children should be able to attend a
‘good’ or better school, with school improvement as its principal focus.
No one school the same, but all with the dual aims of improving
academic outcomes and supporting the development of
personal and social qualities.
A curriculum in our schools that challenges children and one that
emphasises extra-curricular involvement to broaden horizons.
Learning that is of the highest quality, stimulating and prepares
children for life in modern Britain and builds resilience.
Where the Christian vision is important to all our schools
Where strong and structured collaboration is the driving force
behind all that we do and keeps us all safe and secure . 3Current Trust Schools:

10Successes and impact of the Trust:
These are wide-ranging and a full overview is available in the attached documents;
• Outcomes at secondary are high over 3 year trend for all groups and at GCSE and KS5. St Dunstan’s has
improved significantly (now a ‘good’) and SVS remains good since joining the Trust.
• Outcomes in primary schools have improved over time. Trinity, Welton, Clutton, Longvernal have all
improved significantly.
• Provision for children has improved including a better curriculum, improved facilities, improved support
for children, e.g those with SEN.
• School improvement is shared across the Trust schools, is more efficient and impact driven.
• Staff training is done across the Trust and addresses common issues. Teachmeets, moderation,
governor, TAs, clerking, finance, etc.
• Governance is improved at individual school level which is supporting leaders in schools.
• Budgets will be balanced in 90% of the schools this year with £2 million in reserve.
• OFSTED speak highly of the work done by the Trust – see recent inspections visits from Norton Hill,
Somervale, Clutton, Trinity, St Dunstan’s, Longvernal, Dundry.
11What OFSTED says: • ‘The Headteacher, trust and senior leaders have transformed the school. It now provides a good quality of education and pupils are safe.’ – St Dunstan's OFSTED July 2018 • ‘Parents and carers who responded to the online survey and discussions are happy with the school. They typically comment, ‘the academy trust has made many improvements,’ and, ‘staff are dedicated, hardworking and incredibly supportive’ – Dundry OFSTED January 2019 • 'The trust has provided high-quality support for teaching staff to improve their practice. They have added leadership capacity and supported school leaders to improve the quality of education. Together, these have been principle factors in transforming the school.’ – St Dunstan's OFSTED July 2018 • ‘The support provided by the multi-academy trust, The Midsomer Norton Schools Partnership, has been crucial to the rapid improvement at Trinity. Initially, this involved the recruitment of staff and governors. Subsequently, the trust has supplied a wealth of training and coaching opportunities to develop staff and governors.’ – Trinity OFSTED May 2018 • ‘The Midsomer Norton Schools Partnership Trust is highly effective at supporting leaders at every level to bring about improvements. The impact is evident in rising standards and rapidly improving teaching.’ – Clutton OFSTED November 2018 • ‘Leaders in school and from the multi-academy trust, governors and trustees are highly ambitious for the school, each pupil and the community. They have not shied away from making tough decisions to ensure that pupils benefit from a good quality of education.’ – St Dunstan’s OFSTED July 2018 • ‘The school’s local governing board know their school well. There are clear lines of accountability between them and the directors of the multi-academy trust. Governors and trust officials provide effective challenge to school leaders about the standards pupils reach. Joining the trust has successfully enabled leaders and governors to widen the provision they offer to pupils’ – Longvernal OFSTED May 2019 12

2) A core programme of support for all schools.
3) A further programme of support which can draw on the school or
Trust-wide resources depending on need.
4) Thorough monitoring of impact during the improvement process.
5) Evaluation of the improvement work undertaken based on pupil
outcomes/standards.
