We are immensely proud of the role that our alumni are now beginning to play in the world and of what we believe our current generation of pupils will go on to achieve.


We now have 54 schools educating more than 40,000 young people across London and Essex, and employ over 5,000 staff across our academies and head office.

With the majority of our academies located in areas of high socioeconomic disadvantage, a high-quality education is key to the futures of the pupils we serve.


As a provider of employment and education, we value the diversity of our staff and students, and all our staff are equally valued and respected.

We are committed to providing a fair, equitable and mutually supportive learning and working environment for our students and staff.


Our work will impact many generations to come, and our staff come from all backgrounds and walks of life, coming together to inspire young minds.
