Welcome from the CEO

At the heart of The Sigma Trust, a family of 12 schools across North East Essex serving over 11,500 pupils, is a founding philosophy that we are "Greater Than The Sum Of Its Parts." This is not just a motto; it is the principle that guides every decision we make and every action we take.

We are a forward-thinking trust, committed to embracing the latest innovations and engaging with cutting-edge educational research and pedagogy to raise standards and empower our family of academies to achieve more together than they ever could alone.

Our work is deeply grounded in our core values. We believe in nurturing Aspiration to help every child aim for their best, and fostering Passion to encourage a positive and enthusiastic approach to learning. We champion Resilience, teaching our students and staff to persevere, and uphold Integrity by being honest and trustworthy in all we do. We promote Accountability, taking responsibility for our words and actions, and instilling Respect for ourselves, each other, and our environment. We are incredibly proud to have our own teaching school, which allows us to champion a true 'train and retain' model of education, ensuring our schools have the vital resource of excellent teachers.

As a leadership team, we are dedicated to serving our students, our staff, and the families who trust us with their children's futures. We are committed to continuing this vital work together, upholding our shared values to ensure a powerful and purposeful future for every member of our community.
