The Co-operative Academies Trust

Through a great education, we are changing the lives of young people. Built on the same principles as all co-operatives across the world, we work with academies to empower teachers and young people to work together for a better education and a better community. Co-op Academies Trust is a place where you are part of something bigger, through a leading education and opportunities to serve our community, we are working together to make a better world. From ages 3-19 Co-op Academies Trust supports students in Primary, Secondary and Special schools across the North of England, giving children the skills and experiences they need to succeed, no matter where they come from. What makes our Trust unique is that we are sponsored by the Co-op Group. That close relationship means that we benefit from all of the business expertise that has seen the Co-op grow to one of the most respected, successful businesses in the country. Everyone in the Trust honours our fundamental commitment to the Ways of Being Co-op. They are our DNA; they represent our culture and reflect the rationale behind our decision making. No matter what we do, they are how we do it Our ways of being are: Be Yourself, Always Show You Care Do What Matters Most Succeed Together
