Welcome to Blackdown Education Partnership

Thank you for your interest in finding out more about us. We are establishing ourselves as a dynamic, collaborative and values driven Multi-Academy Trust in the beautiful South West. We have a very simple mission which is founded in a belief in the potential of every child.   

This is expressed in three clear values: 

  • Equity

  • Opportunity

  • Community 

We believe that education is transformative: it changes lives; and that schools are uniquely placed to engineer social change through powerfully addressing disadvantage in all its forms. The trust that is placed in us to nurture and support our pupils into flourishing and confident young people is one which we are committed to justifying.  

We serve a diverse range of communities in Devon and Somerset and are dedicated to working in partnership with everyone invested in these communities to enrich our children’s lives and empower them to carve out positive futures for themselves.  

This is expressed through an absolute commitment to our local areas and an ambition to serve all the children and families within them.  

We believe that working together enables each of us to travel further than we could go alone. However, we are also very respectful of the unique place each school has at the heart of its community. Our schools each have their own vibrant and individual character. Our role is to add value, not to produce identikit institutions.  

There is no greater privilege than working with children and the vital role that we play in helping them to dream and believe in the beauty of their dreams is one to which we are totally committed.
