The Forest of Dean Trust has a simple mission. We strive to continue improving our schools' outcomes and to play our role in affecting positive change in our communities. To do this, our schools collaborate in all areas and share best practices.

The Forest of Dean Trust is built upon excellent relationships, honest conversations and unwavering support to get the best out of each other. Staff work together to improve their teaching, students are actively involved in their school and parents are listened to and supported in our shared journey.

The modern world is a complex place and we seek to equip our students with the skills to thrive and to make a difference. We relish the opportunity we have been given to influence the lives of young people in the Forest of Dean.
Our trust has a common-sense approach to working with young people that is founded on giving and getting respect. Our staff love their jobs, and we work hard to instill a love of school and community into our students. We are very serious about our role within the community and we are an active presence within it.
