We are GAT.

We believe in providing the very best for Every Child, in Every Academy, Every Day.

At Greenwood Academies Trust (GAT), our core belief is simple: we exist to provide the very best for every child, in every academy, every day.

As a strong and inclusive Trust, we are guided by the principles of integrity, humility, trust, and decency, ensuring that all our children have the opportunity to thrive.

We have one priority: to deliver the best outcomes for all children

Across our Trust, we maintain a single priority to improve outcomes in the broadest sense for all children. We recognise that success encompasses academic achievement, personal development and being prepared for their next steps. We want all our children to have choices about the paths they follow.

We believe children and communities are at the heart of everything we do

We advocate a place-based curriculum and nurture strong leadership at every level across our Trust. This ensures our children are set on the pathway best suited to their talents and aspirations.

We value people and leadership

We are dedicated to recruiting and retaining talented individuals who are encouraged to contribute ideas and challenge our thinking. We are an open and outward-facing organisation, continually learning from the strengths of others, sharing expertise, and seeking to influence the wider education sector.

At GAT, everyone is recognised as a leader. We support, challenge, and enable our colleagues to deliver the best possible outcomes for every child. Our culture values people, encourages humility, and fosters an environment where listening, trust, and care are central to our beliefs.
