Mission and Values

Our Mission

Campfire Education Trust (CET) will ensure all pupils, regardless of their backgrounds or starting points, can access a high quality, enriched educational offer which leads to strong outcomes.


Our mission is to establish a dynamic professional learning community across CET, and beyond, so that we can support, challenge and equip our staff to provide the best possible education for the pupils and communities that we serve.


The definition of our ‘Trust’ is everyone in the organisation: pupils, teachers, support staff, leaders, those in governance roles and the central team. We are all part of the Campfire Education Trust community and we recognise that we are stronger together.

Our Values

Collaborative

Learning is the core business at CET. As one organisation we have a collective responsibility to maximise our learning by sharing our expertise, aligning our work where it makes sense to do so and being open to different perspectives, with the understanding that we only succeed if we all succeed.


We are outward facing and actively seek opportunities to impact and contribute to the wider school system. We relish the opportunity to learn from other organisations too, recognising the importance of external collaboration and partnerships in removing the ceiling of what can be achieved.


Supportive

We are committed to creating a supportive culture of learning for all staff and pupils. Each school within CET has its own distinctive character, curriculum and identity in order to support the local needs of the pupils and communities. We celebrate this diversity and recognise it is by working together, as one wider Trust community, that we can achieve more.


Relationships are strong within schools, and across CET. We prioritise and invest time in building resilient relationships, underpinned by honesty and based on robust evaluation. We are reflective practitioners; therefore, feedback is welcomed and is rooted in our mission to provide the best possible education for pupils.


Ambitious

We are ambitious for our staff, our community of schools and all pupils. Central to this ethos is the unified goal to continuously learn and improve so that there is no limit to what can be achieved. CET facilitates and prioritises professional learning and leadership development opportunities for staff, so that we build capacity for continuous improvement.


By taking a holistic approach to education we aim to provide equity of opportunity for all our pupils regardless of their starting points. By removing barriers, accelerating progress and developing the whole child through an enriched curriculum, we ensure that pupils are ready, both academically and socially, for the next stage of their education.



A community of schools in which we recognise we are stronger together
