Gloucester
The Diocese of Gloucester Academies Trust (DGAT) is a multi-academy trust
established by the Diocesan Board of Education (DBE) in 2012. The Trust is part
of the wider family of Church of England schools in the Diocese of Gloucester.
More information about Diocesan Schools can be found here. Our purpose is to
provide children of all faiths and none, with excellent educational provision
which transforms lives within a caring and supportive Christian ethos. Our
family of schools is fully inclusive and welcoming to all. There are currently
18 primary schools and one infant school within the Trust. Eighteen of the 19
academies have a religious designation as Church of England schools. All of the
academies are located in Gloucestershire Local Authority. Supporting the
spiritual, moral, social, cultural and physical development of each child, as
well as maximising their progress, achievement and attainment to ensure their
intellectual growth, is key. In tandem with this is the drive to support and
develop the staff within the family of schools. In order to build strong
learning communities, the Trust ensures that schools are confident and
outward-facing in all that they do, building strong, effective links with
parents, parishes, local schools, community groups and the wider educational
community. The Trust has a high level of expertise in school improvement at a
central level and within individual schools. This is used to support schools on
their journey towards outstanding.
