Our Trust

The Sapientia Education Trust Was formed in 2016 fro

Whilst Wymondham College was the founding school of the Sapientia Education Trust, it is now part of a wider local trust of 20 schools serving children and families across Norfolk and Suffolk. The Trust was founded on the principle that every child deserves a world class education locally, and that belief shapes the work we undertake in our schools each and every day.

At the core of that work is the belief that education practice can only improve and develop through the sharing of ideas and knowledge. 
At its heart, the Sapientia Education Trust is a community of schools and professionals working collegiately towards that shared vision.

We also understand and recognise the value of the incredible work that goes on in schools across Norfolk and our collective desire to improve outcomes. We are proud to support a wide range of system led approaches to developing and sharing best practice.

Sapientia Education Trust welcomes the opportunity to work in partnership with all schools and Trusts.

Our strategic intent is:

To deliver an education that is holistic and broad ranging, inclusive and diverse, of high quality in and beyond the classroom

To ensure opportunities to achieve are available for all

To harness and develop the talents that exist in the Trust

To meet the professional needs of staff, sharing best practice, with a strong commitment to personal development

Our Trust will be:

Responsive to schools as they join the Trust, valuing the unique qualities/individualism of each Trust school, whilst recognising the need for all schools to deliver the strategic intents of the Trust.

Run on sound and ethical business principles, offering a structure whereby resources and expertise can be focused across all of the schools, keeping down back office costs and driving up standards.

Vision and Values

This is all underpinned by our six Noble Truths:
