We are a Multi Academy Trust operating in the North East of England. It is the aim that every school in Prince Regent Street Trust is at least a good school and, if not already an outstanding school, aspiring to become one.
Schools are invited to consider joining Prince Regent Street Trust, to become an associate member. The trustees believe that this is an important part of the process for the Trust and prospective schools to decide their compatibility, especially in terms of their shared ethos, and consider the mutual benefits of the prospective school joining the Trust.
We are delighted to offer you our ‘Try before you buy’ two term offer. This comprehensive, bespoke package of support includes development opportunities for headteachers, leaders including governors, teaching and non-teaching staff, which will positively impact on many areas of school life.
Our offer consists of six days of dedicated support from our experienced central team. You can select from a wide range of school improvement and finance & operational opportunities to tailor a programme which fully meets the needs of your school. The majority of our support and development opportunities will be half-day sessions. We do however, offer extended opportunities, including a two-day Partnership Improvement Review.
The cost of the full package of support has been set at £2950. If this fee is beyond the school’s current budgetary expectations, elements of the package can be amended or negotiated as appropriate. As part of the package you will receive or have access to the opportunities outlined overleaf.
