The SECAT mission
Building strong schools, building strong partnerships, building strong communities

The SECAT vision
We are a community of schools working in partnership, sharing resources and ideas to provide a rounded and inclusive education to our students who range from the age of 3 through to 18. We work towards enhancing the life chances and prosperity of our students and equipping them for adult life. Whilst keeping each school’s individual character, we encourage our staff to share best practices and knowledge to further benefit our students. We are passionate about educating and encouraging our students to become active, successful citizens and to have the confidence to meet any challenge they face.

The SECAT ethos and values
What we think is important to achieve our vision is:
• To encourage kindness, integrity, and a positive mindset
• To do our best every day
• Valuing the diversity and qualities of our students and staff
• Ensuring everyone feels appreciated and supported
• Recognising and celebrating behaviours that lead to progress
