The National Education Trust is an independent charitable foundation dedicated to
the promotion and sharing of excellent practice and innovation in education.

The Trust works nationally with a number of 'Advocacy Schools' which promote the values that NET espouses and have their own distinctive approach to what is best in curriculum, leadership, teaching and learning.

We are building numbers of these schools to create a network that is influential (both locally and nationally), sustainable and robust. The purpose of the network is to help facilitate that sharing and promotion of good practice.

The Schools are all different, but have the following features:

All around the school there are places of interest, challenge, wonder and reflection
The leadership of the school is committed to an aspirational culture: one of belief that children and young people can achieve more than they might have thought
The 'student voice' is listened to and acted upon
The staff is committed to excellent teaching and an orderly, enthusiastic community
Governors, parents and local people hold the school in high regard, and are involved in productive discourse about the school's vision and performance
Certain aspects stand out from the norm, both to those who work in the school, and to visitors who observe: 'Someone's doing something special here'.

The Trust holds Invitation Seminars in these schools, and they often host groups of visiting headteachers from different parts of the country, including those taking part in 'Sustaining Success' and 'Sparkling Classrooms courses.

Many of the headteachers and teachers from these 'Advocacy Schools' lead in-service training provided by NET.

You can capture a little of what these schools are about by clicking onto their websites below. Their headteachers are contactable via our office.
