Our Vision:

Athena Learning Trust is dedicated to delivering world-class support that transforms the lives of our communities. We understand that children are the future, and our mission is to inspire and empower them to dream big, take responsibility, and be kind.

Our Ethos:

At Athena, we are committed to fostering ambitious young individuals who are passionate about learning and eager to expand their horizons. Our top priority is making a lasting impact – not just for our students, but also for our dedicated colleagues and the communities we serve.

We are united in our pursuit of creating exceptional schools, working collaboratively across all levels to share expertise, challenge ourselves continuously, and provide unwavering support. We live and breathe our values, drawing inspiration from the world's foremost educators and thought leaders.

Athena Learning Trust firmly believes that the most significant investment we can make for our students is in those who teach and lead them. We recognise the importance of knowledge-building and knowledge-sharing in developing a lifelong love of learning among our community, nurturing passionate educators committed to transforming the lives of young people.

Our Values:

Dream Big

We are dedicated to delivering world-class education, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to lead extraordinary lives. Our commitment extends to children, young people, and staff in the Southwest, England, and beyond.

Be Kind

High support and high ownership are at the heart of our ethos. As a Trust, we are resolute in our pursuit of support, kindness, and integrity. We aspire to see all our schools embrace this ethos and uphold our values.

Take Responsibility

We recognise the unique identity of each school as crucial in helping students reach their full potential. Therefore, we are steadfast in our commitment to having each school or cluster led by their own Headteacher and Local Governing Body, collectively responsible for delivering a world-class education.
