About Fortis Trust

At Fortis Trust, we place young people at the heart of all that we do. We work as a family of collaborative and innovative academies and institutions that together have the talents and strengths to improve the achievements and life chances of the young people, families and communities we serve. We recognise the strength that strong collaborative partnerships can bring and focus on supporting all academies and partners to strive for excellence.

Our Multi-Academy Trust exists to work together to make a positive global difference for all through collaboration and innovation. We aim to bring together a diverse range of schools from across the south-east creating collaborative partnerships through which best practice can be developed, harnessed and shared for the betterment of all. Our academies and provisions have very different contexts so we deliberately do not adhere to a one-size fits all approach across our Trust. Instead, we are united by our focus on delivering the very best learning experiences for all, striving for excellence in everything that we do.

We do this by ensuring that all our learning opportunities are aligned to our Framework for Excellent Practice. Our expectation is that all staff will know, recognise and use the framework in all aspects of their work. We serve a wide range of different communities. Our diversity and differences gives us our strength and broadens our knowledge base of what works best for children and young people. As a Trust, we promote and celebrate the individuality of our academies by providing them with the freedom to develop their own strengths and distinct characters in order to meet the unique needs of their communities. Our academies value maintaining this individuality, whilst maximising the benefits of being part of a larger supportive network and organisation.

Fortis Trust has an excellent track record of delivering effective school improvement; with sharing of best practice and expertise, both within the Trust and beyond, improving the quality of teaching and learning, leadership and governance; to continuously challenge and raise expectations for all across Medway, Kent and the South-East. We are proud of the quality of our teaching and learning across the Trust, and the support we provide to nursery, primary & secondary schools, and provisions across Medway and Kent through our outreach service. Which, through the sharing of expertise and best practice provides high quality school improvement and support.
