Our Partners

St Cuthbert’s RC Academy Trust (SCRCAT) is made up of a group of fifteen Catholic schools in Hull, the East Riding and Scarborough. The trust has a long-standing involvement in and commitment to ITT, with St Mary’s College providing the leadership and coordination.  

Working collaboratively to provide the best opportunities and a good Catholic education for every child, the heart of the trust’s Christian service is to welcome and value each individual as equal, regardless of nationality, gender, race, colour, sexuality or creed. St Cuthbert’s schools have exceptional standards of personal pastoral care, rooted in the Christian tradition and values of kindness, support, peace, justice, forgiveness and joy. The trust’s outlook and ambition is both international and inclusive.

Hull Collaborative Academy Trust (HCAT) has been at the forefront of Primary ITT in Hull and been a strategic partner of St Mary’s College for many years. HCAT has long experience of ITT leadership and governance, curriculum design and delivery, mentor training and support, quality assurance, and partnership coordination.

HCAT consists of fifteen primaries and one secondary school, united by common ‘HCAT signature’ values: a shared belief in the power and importance of restorative behaviours; a focus on academic readiness and building growth mindsets; providing education which builds character, self-worth, happiness and security; and offering wide experiences to broaden young people’s horizons.

The Humber Education Trust (HET) is made up of 17 primary and special schools. The trust has made supporting ITT for Primary and SEND a strategic priority over many years and has a wealth of experience in providing leadership, governance, quality assurance, mentoring and placements. The trust schools are united by a common focus on high aspirations, moral values, care and support, and providing inclusion whilst celebrating individual uniqueness.

The Consortium Academy Trust consists of three primaries, six secondaries and a sixth form college. These schools share a common vision for ‘Shaping Positive Futures’ - supporting young people to achieve their ambitions and become confident citizens. The community of leaders, teachers and support staff in the trust are motivated by the shared values of aspiration, respect, integrity and responsibility as they work collaboratively to tackle some of society’s most critical challenges, maintain high standards and improve learning outcomes.

Venn is a pioneering academy trust, committed to building educational environments where all pupils are inspired to become lifelong learners who achieve the very highest standards possible. As well as its mainstream academies, the trust also serves some of the region’s most vulnerable learners and comprises special and alternative provision including a hybrid/alternative provision free school.

Each school in the Thrive trust is a dynamic community of staff, pupils and their families all focussed on one thing - inspiring pupils to thrive in life. The trust believes that great schools are much more than learning factories. They are transformative places where eyes are opened, support and care is expressed, and personal potential is realised. The trust achieves this by working cooperatively and holding fast to the values of the ‘Thrive Charter’. The trust has a long-standing ITT partnership with Vantage and brings a wealth of experience at hosting primary and secondary trainee placements.
