Cranmer Education Trust

Cranmer Education Trust The purpose of The Cranmer Education Trust is to provide excellent schools for our children and young people. They are the key to the future.

Our vision for our schools is that all our pupils thrive, achieve, experience success, and become the best they can be and the best they are meant to be. Realising our vision depends on recruiting, developing and investing in the very best teachers for our young people. The Cranmer Education Trust is a nationally accredited, independent Initial Teacher Training provider. The Manchester Nexus SCITT invests in recruiting the best trainee teachers from across the country. We train them in Trust schools, and in our partner schools. We support teachers in our schools to train new recruits; we invest in their professional development, and their leadership. All teachers in our fast-paced, ever-changing context lead, and The Cranmer Education Trust will ensure that they have the knowledge, skills and confidence to do this. We are a Church of England Trust. Our values and the way we work as a Trust are grounded in the Gospels. This is servant-leadership, always with the children and young people at the centre. We serve a multi-faith, multi-ethnic and multi-talented community, and welcome both schools with a religious character – which we will nurture – and community schools who want to join us to build the best schools, the best teaching, and the best future for our young people.

It was a real privilege for our Trust Marketing Team to be at St Anne’s Academy this morning as students collected their GCSE results.

Over the past five years, we’ve had the opportunity to follow St Anne’s closely, capturing school life, sharing its successes and witnessing first-hand just how far the academy has come.

Today felt like another important moment in that journey.

We are incredibly proud of the journey St Anne’s has been on and of the part that journey is playing in establishing the academy as a school of choice for families in Middleton and the surrounding area.

What a journey, and there is so much more still to come.

On this day, four years ago…

Representatives from Cranmer Education Trust, The The Brian Clarke C of E Academy and the local council came together for the school’s signing of the steels ceremony, marking an important milestone in the creation of a brand-new school for Oldham.

Two primary school pupils also signed the steel that day, looking ahead to joining Brian Clarke just a few months later.

Four years on, those same pupils are preparing to walk into their final year at Brian Clarke, as the school reaches another major milestone: welcoming its first full cohort from Year 7 through to Year 11.

A proud moment in the school’s journey, and a reminder of just how far Brian Clarke has come.
