the challenge academy trust
London
Hello and welcome to The Challenge Academy Trust (TCAT). The Trust was formed in
2017 by like-minded leaders of local primary and secondary schools in Warrington
along with Priestley College. Our intention was to work collaboratively to
improve outcomes for children and young people in the Warrington area and this
collective responsibility is one we maintain to this day. Our mission is to
serve, challenge and empower the educational community. We enact our mission by
providing highly effective services to our academies, supporting strong
leadership, investing in the workforce and inspiring our children and young
people. All of our work is underpinned by a set of core values, they are:
Inclusivity and social justice Educational excellence Collaboration and
interdependence Challenge and service Care and sustainability Celebrating
difference These values inform everything we do as a trust and all of our
services and working practices are designed around these concepts. TCAT is a
unique trust, being the first in the country to include primary and secondary
academies together with a sixth form college.
