Community College is a small academy set in rural Devon whose values are based
on unity, compassion and friendship. As one of the founding members of the
Dartmoor Multi Academy Trust, we live the cooperative values that the Trust
holds at its heart.
Our
Trust comprises of 19 schools, 3 Colleges, 15 Primaries, and one All Through
SEMH Special school. Established in 2018, We are situated in beautiful Devon on
the out the outskirts of the stunning Dartmoor National Park. The schools vary
in size and are all unique. Our schools are a large part of their local
communities, and we value those relationships with families and locals.
The
Trust was created to enable schools and staff to work closely together in
providing the best education possible for our children. We achieve this through
meaningful collaboration both within our schools and beyond our Trust to ensure
schools are able to secure and sustain improvement.
Our
work is built on our shared values and an unwavering belief that education
improves the life chances for the children in our care. We aim for everyone in
our organisation, staff and children, to be the best they can be and are
relentless in our ambition to achieve this. We want our children to look back
on their school experience with a sense of achievement and joy and we provide a
wealth of additional curriculum experiences to enrich their learning.
We
care deeply about the children in our schools and work with kindness,
compassion, manners and respect. By modelling and expecting these behaviours
from our children, we aim to grow future citizens who will positively
contribute to society, creating a brighter future for our world.
Our
vision and values are what we build our schools upon, with Ambition,
Co-operation & Transformation being at the heart.
