Our Trust
I am proud to welcome you to Impact Education Multi Academy Trust.
Our vision is to be a Trust where hearts and minds connect; values-driven partners who work collaboratively to provide a high-quality and inclusive education that impacts positively on our young people. We are on a mission to improve their life chances, challenging social disadvantage and championing inclusion. We believe in student agency and equipping our young people with the knowledge, skills, and qualities to be successful in learning, life, and work.
Our people are empowered to create, explore, share, and learn from each other and the wider system through agile professional learning communities. They have access to high quality professional development through our Institute of Learning. We work hard, but not at the expense of wellbeing, and we want all our people to feel valued, respected, and happy in their work.
Our values of Heart, Mind and Connect underpin everything we do, and our core principles articulate how we will live these out across our Academies.
Best Wishes,
Mick Kay, Chief Executive Officer & Accounting Officer
Core Principles
Value Driven
Impact Academies are communities where hearts and minds connect. Each Academy is built around a clear set of values which are focused on transforming the lives of our students.
Collaborative Leadership
Impact Academies provide clarity of vision which will enable us to develop shared goals with leaders feeling empowered to share their skills and knowledge for the benefit of the wider trust. Our leaders will inspire, motivate and lead with emotional intelligence.
Learning & Research Focused
Impact Academies are communities where hearts and minds connect. Each Academy is built around a clear set of values which are focused on transforming the lives of our students.
Effective Relationships
Impact Academies place the development of effective relationships at the heart of their work. How we connect with each other, the community, culture, our learning and the wider world is the foundation of everything we do. Our relationships are built on mutual respect, professional trust and challenge.
High Expectations
Impact Academies have high expectations of all students. Ambitious academic and personal development targets are set to ensure each student makes outstanding progress. Academies reinforce positive attitudes to learning, reasoning, resilience, responsibility, reflection and respect are key learning characteristics cultivated in our academies.
Developmental Opportunities
Impact Academies invest in the personal development of students and professional development of staff. Impact Academies provide all students with opportunities to make a contribution to their communities and beyond.
Our Academies
Our Academies are aligned to the Trust Mission, Vision and Aims and have individual identities which reflect the diverse communities they serve. They have the autonomy to create, explore and learn from different practices and our Headteachers believe that leadership and personal accountability are founded on self-direction and reflection.

A message to staff from our CEO @mickkay_
For one last time, our EYFS children performed to a packed-out audience this afternoon. They were joined by 10 lovely ladies from Rimani Wellbeing Centre in Halifax, organised via Age UK. This is something we hope to build on in 2025. @ImpactMAT @ageuk #4Rs #community
