Bourne Education Trust

About Bourne Education Trust

BET is a successful multi-academy trust made up of 24 schools (plus 6 associate schools), across primary, secondary and specialist school phases in Surrey, Hampshire and the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. Specialising in supporting schools to improve their performance, BET continues to grow a community of like-minded academies with the highest aspiration and dedication to achieving the best outcomes for their learners. At BET, we are responsible for the education of 14,000 pupils and employ a dedicated team of just over 1,600 staff members. Our organisational structure is designed to facilitate collaboration and innovation, with schools grouped into phases and clusters to further allow specialised and cross-phase work. The size of our schools range from a one-form entry primary to an 8-form entry secondary school with a sixth form. Schools are equally important and carry the same influence in terms of decision-making in line with our commitment to inclusivity and fairness. Our track record demonstrates our commitment to educational excellence and since 2012, we have successfully transformed ten schools, taking them from special measures or requiring improvement to a 'good' or 'outstanding' status. Central to our mission is the belief that every child, regardless of their background, deserves access to a high-quality education. We actively engage with schools and communities that may not have previously experienced such opportunities, and while we respect and preserve the unique identities of our schools, they all share a common ethos of warmth, professionalism, positivity, high aspirations and a safe and nurturing environment that fosters positive relationships between pupils and staff. As an employer we know that our people are the key to our success and for this reason you will find a culture of excellence across our schools, inspiring confidence and belief in our communities.
