Cidari Education - Multi Academy Trust, established in November 2013 is a growing education sponsor and part of the Blackburn Diocese. We are committed to providing high quality education for all children in our academies based on clearly established Christian values and principles.
At the heart of our aims and objectives is the provision of high quality education for all children based on clearly established Christian values and principles. We see it as the right of every child in our schools to receive the best educational experience possible which develops them academically, socially, spiritually and emotionally. We believe that every child should know that they are loved and valued and that each one all should all be able to reach their full potential.
We work closely and collaboratively with all our schools and other partners to ensure that we offer a strong caring ethos, a clear moral purpose and inclusive values. We believe that these foster:
• High academic standards and improve school performance
• Raised community aspirations
• An inclusive and welcoming environment for those of all faiths or of none
• An open Christian ethos within whose values all can achieve their full potential
We encourage all our schools to see themselves as part of a family with a shared vision and identity. This shared vision includes the wish to work in partnership with each other to support, challenge and encourage and so provide the very best educational experience to all their children.
Working with high performing schools, National and Local Leaders in Education, Teaching Schools and other partners, we apply rigour in recruitment processes, particularly of senior leaders, to furnish our schools with the best leadership along with highly effective governance to secure high expectations for all schools and to ensure effective improvement systems and the raising of standards for all. We are committed to appointing and supporting the very best teachers to all our schools and to providing them with the resources, training and support they need to ensure all children progress well and achieve the very best they can.
