Children are at the heart of everything we do at Infinity, and we strive every day to add value to our schools to enable them to be even better places for our children and young people to learn and grow.
We are proud that our Trust serves a wide number of different communities and is made up of different kinds of schools. It's this diversity and difference that gives us our strength and broadens our knowledge base of what works best for children.
As a Trust, we promote the individuality of our schools and provide them with the freedom to develop their own strengths, distinct character and to meet the needs of their communities, whilst at the same time seeking to maximise the benefits of being part of a larger network and organisation.
Being part of a Trust gives our staff access to exciting professional development opportunities, gives children the chance to interact with others from different schools, and provides challenge and support to school leaders through effective governance.
We are driven by a passion to do our very best for the children in our schools and we know that by working together we can achieve things that we could not do alone.
Gavin Booth - CEO of Infinity Academies Trust
Each year, Infinity Academies Trust produces an Impact Report to reflect on the progress our schools are making.
The latest, from December 2023, shows that not only have our outcomes improved, particularly for those children who are about to leave us for secondary school, but the opportunities we have been able to offer our children has also been enhanced. Some of the trips and activities our children have been part of are fantastic.
Three schools were also inspected by Ofsted, with one school, St Nicholas CE Primary School in Boston, securing its first Good in a decade. Little Gonerby CE Primary Academy was also found to be Good with Outstanding features, and St Thomas CE Primary Academy was told that they could be judged Outstanding at their next inspection.
We don’t do what we do for Ofsted gradings, but the external validation that our schools are moving forward with pace and purpose is important. Our schools are now standing shoulder-to-shoulder with some of the best in the area.
In addition, we have welcomed two schools into our Trust, supported one school to move from being an Infant school to an all-through primary and invested nearly £2 million in enhancing our learning spaces, IT provision and school buildings.
It has been a real year to remember.
