On Wednesday 28 January, Workload and Wellbeing Leads from across the Trust came together for the first People Strategy Conference, focusing on driving professional growth and staff wellbeing.

The conference reinforced our commitment to creating environments where staff feel valued, supported, and able to thrive.

The event centred on embedding the Trust’s People Strategy: Attract & Retain, Develop, Empower, Thrive, with practical discussions on supporting colleagues at every stage of their career, prioritising manageable workloads and wellbeing, and sharing ideas to build a positive, collaborative culture across all schools.

Our strategy is designed to attract, develop, and retain talented staff who share our Trust’s vision and values. We aim to empower colleagues to grow, lead, and innovate, ensure consistently high-quality teaching and support across all schools, foster a positive, collaborative culture where teams can thrive, and drive long-term success for every pupil and community we serve.

By investing in our people and putting wellbeing at the heart of everything we do, the Trust ensures a strong, resilient workforce ready to deliver education without exception.
