One Excellence Multi Academy Trust is a Multi Academy Trust made up of four schools. The Trust was founded in July 2017 and is a mixed Multi Academy Trust. The vision and rationale behind the wider partnership are based on shared values and aspirations, a strong sense of community identity and values of inclusion and aspiration for all.

One Excellence Multi Academy Trust believes in supporting and investing in its staff and has a structured health and well-being programme. The programme includes physiotherapy, nurse support service and drop-in clinic, counselling, mindfulness sessions, weight management, stress awareness, GP consultations and private medical operations if required.  We are also keen for staff to be able to reach their full potential and offer a range of professional development opportunities in all areas of education, nurturing and leadership.

One Excellence English Hub, based at St Michael’s Church of England Primary School in Bishop Middleham, Ferryhill is one of 34 English Hubs designated by the Department for Education. We primarily work with schools across the North East of England.
