Lot Information

Lot 1

The Laurus Trust is a Multi-Academy Trust (MAT), committed to providing exceptional academic education to its family of schools across Stockport, Manchester, Tameside, and Cheshire East. Schools under the Laurus Trust consistently achieve outstanding results through a relentless pursuit of excellence and a dedication to student success. Cheadle Hulme High School is the founding school of the Laurus Trust and was rated 'Outstanding' in the school's last inspection and regularly features in The Times and The Sunday Times Parent Power listing. The Trust's commitment to excellence is evident not only at its founding school, but also in the outstanding achievements of Laurus Ryecroft, Laurus Cheadle Hulme, Didsbury High School, and Gorsey Bank Primary School - all receiving the top rating from Ofsted in their most recent inspections. The key belief across the Laurus Trust is that the all-round educational attainment of individual students and pupils, is substantially promoted by their participation in a whole range of activities, not just classroom based academic ones. Inspiring students and pupils through these activities will enable them to become better motivated, as well as being more respected by their peers. From nursery through to Sixth Form we will strive to provide the best all-round educational experience. We aim for our students to have the choice of accessing the top universities and employment, to have the attitudes and habits to be successful when they get there, and the cultural preparation to think, study and lead - or influence those who lead. We believe that all our students and pupils, regardless of their ability, background or circumstance, have the right to an academic education. We don't think there is anything elitist about this aspiration. What we do think is elitist is that only the most able or the privately educated should be able to access an academic education. Please see SQ Document for more information. Additional information: Please note, this is a contract award notice, this contract has already been awarded.
