Oldham

Our approach to all we do is governed by our commitment to make a positive difference to children. We are a specialist primary-focused organisation as we want to make sure that each school we work with is distinctive as a unique primary school. Each school is an integral part of the Trust. This means that they are involved in decision making for the Trust as a whole. When schools have joined Focus-Trust we aim to: identify their needs and make sure these are addressed; know how much impact their work is having on children’s academic progress and well-being; be a self-sustaining, autonomous organisation; take decisions about their preferred future; and work with the Focus-Trust team to ensure highly effective governance. There is an expectation that successful schools will work with others and share best practice. It is the responsibility of every school to make a positive difference to others. This work will help to build the capacity of the Focus-Trust and provide both CPD and career opportunities for all staff. What makes the Focus-Trust distinctive? A 30 year track record of our sponsor Focus Education supporting schools to be the best they can be. A wealth of experience and practical resources matched to the needs of the primary phase. A team of excellent people who work with schools across England. A commitment to excellent primary practice. Effective systems and procedures to ensure that the conversion to academy status is as smooth and hassle-free as possible. A network of schools across England that work with Focus Education, so can pull on a wealth of best primary practice. What are the benefits of being part of the Focus-Trust? Supported through the conversion process. Access to package of Focus Education consultancy support tailored to your needs. You are the Trust! In other words, you take a role in the decision making and steering the future direction of the Focus-Trust. Network and share with other schools wider than your immediate locality. Access to reduced cost CPD. Financial savings through economies of scale. On-going challenge and support to ensure that leadership (including governance) enables the academy to be the best it can be. Longer term career development opportunities for team members. Gain academy freedoms and autonomy whilst being part of a wider family offering security and collaboration. School-to-school support and CPD. Comprehensive Responsive Professional Learning Programme We wanted to be an academy but knew we didn’t want to go-it-alone. We chose to be part of the Focus-Trust because we trust their school improvement expertise and have valued their partnership approach.(Primary Headteacher) Every conversation is professional development, we are improving every day.

24th August FREE FIND YOUR CENTRE WITH MANDALA BEAN ART

5.0(46)

By Art and Spirituality CIC

A mandala is basically a circle that becomes this beautiful container to hold all your ideas and emotions. We're gonna kick off our workshop together with this really relaxing meditation – complete with crystals and incense – to quiet that busy mind and find the right focus and concentration you need to create your mandala. Once you're feeling ready and calm, you'll create your own personal mandala using different beans, letting your imagination run wild. (we'll glue them on paper) While you're working, I'll be sharing the history, process, and meaning behind mandalas in a super easy way – we'll explore everything from how they show up in nature to their role in religion and art. I'll show you some incredible pictures of mandalas from around the world that'll blow your mind. When your wonderful work is done, I'll guide you through a creative visualization to reconnect with your inner center. Then here's the beautiful part – you'll choose 3 beans from your mandala and plant them with some cotton and water by your window at home. You get to watch them germinate and grow, and they'll become your new seeds for the coming months. It's this amazing cycle – from creating your mandala circle to planting actual seeds that will grow into new life. Your inner work becomes outer growth, literally.
