Trinity Multi Academy Trust were first approached to work with the then Sowerby Bridge High School, when it had been graded as inadequate by Ofsted and had been ranked in the bottom 15% of all schools nationally.
In September 2021 we adopted the new name of Trinity Academy Grammar to better communicate our identity, high standards and aspirations for our students. We chose a name which truly reflects our grammar school heritage, and to better showcase our core values of Empathy, Honesty, Respect and Responsibility,
Now, Trinity Academy Grammar is one of the most improved schools in the country, receiving an Ofsted grading of Good with Outstanding in Leadership and Personal Development in February 2023.
We also proudly hold the World Class Schools Quality Mark award. Our sole purpose is for all students to feel known, valued and understood and to leave the Academy equipped for the next stages of their lives. Our passionate and committed staff work tirelessly to ensure the young people of Trinity Academy Grammar, receive only the very best.
We have invested significantly in the professional development of our staff, offering bespoke CPD programmes for teaching and support staff at all stages of their career. These include a new staff induction programme, which runs throughout the first term for any staff joining the academy, including 10-Minute Tip coaches for the duration of the programme. TAG greatly values its Early Career Teachers (ECTs), who also receive regular mentor support as well as opportunities to engage in the latest education research.
Every single one of our ECTs reported that they experienced good support and guidance during their programme, which had a direct positive impact on their practice. The teaching and learning team lead regular bespoke CPD, including weekly practice, for all teaching staff, teaching assistants, learning mentors and curriculum tutors, all of which is underpinned by the latest educational research.
In addition to this, curriculum and subject-focused CPD is led regularly throughout the term by curriculum leaders. All leaders, curricular and pastoral, receive additional weekly leadership development by line managers and through regular group CPD sessions led by the Senior Leadership Team (SLT).
Everything is designed to attract and retain the very best people who will, in turn, create the best outcomes for our students, in order that they leave us feeling known, valued and understood.
