sapientia education trust
Norfolk,
The Sapientia Education Trust (SET) was established in 2016 with the purpose of
bringing like-minded schools together to work in partnership to deliver a world
class education to pupils in Norfolk and Suffolk. The term Sapientia comes from
the motto of the founding school, Wymondham College, and means wisdom. Our work
is cross-phase and involves a strong commitment to staff development and
on-going training for all staff in our schools. We believe that collaboration
and partnership work helps raise standards and we work with a range of schools
within and beyond our Trust. SET currently consists of 7 secondary schools and
10 primary schools, educating 5,500 pupils. We range in size from the largest
state boarding school in the UK, to several very small, rural schools. Further
details on each school can be found on our schools’ page. We share a common
belief that high quality education is broad ranging and embraces strong
extra-curricular provision and an expectation that all pupils can and should
achieve. As a Trust our school improvement record is very strong. In Summer 2019
three of our secondary schools secured progress outcomes at GCSE that were
"above average" and Wymondham College Sixth Form outcomes were also "above
average". Our primary schools continue to improve and include 3 schools where
KS2 outcomes were significantly above national average. We look forward to
maintaining our record as a high performing Trust.
