About Mater Christi Multi-Academy Trust

Welcome to The Mater Christi Trust

Our Family. Our Trust.

The Mater Christi Trust was founded in September 2021. We are a growing Catholic Trust, starting with a family of 8 schools and now 16 Catholic schools: two secondaries and 14 primaries across North Lancashire and Cumbria in the Diocese of Lancaster.

Our schools are spread geographically across two counties and three Local Authorities. Our geography challenges our Trust to think and work cleverly in order to fulfil our Vision of “Our Family, Our Trust.” We do this by working closely with our Heads, finding and creating opportunities to work together and by knowing our staff and schools very well.

We have offices in Carlisle and in Ulverston.

The Mater Christ Trust also work closely with our two sister Diocesan Trusts, Mater Ecclesiae Catholic Multi Academy Trust in Preston and Blessed Bamber Catholic Multi Academy Trust in Blackpool.

Our schools are in cities, towns and rural communities and are of differing sizes and needs with different priorities. Some of our schools are nearby each other, some are far apart. Our values: Loving, Learning and Togetherness underpin our approach to working together to improve and provide excellent education. We know that we are serving different communities and therefore our schools are not all the same. They retain their individuality and a great deal of autonomy, but we do a lot together and we are aligning on key elements.

We want our pupils to know that we know and love them. We want them to leave us happy, compassionate and fulfilled. We want our staff to feel supported to be the best that they can be, with the right resources and training.

We are inspired by the name of our Trust: Mater Christi – the Mother of Christ – who serves as a powerful role model for all of us showing faith, strength and patience. We are honoured to have her title as our name.

Please feel free to contact us if you would like to visit any of our schools or hear about our priorities and actions.

We would be delighted to welcome you.

The Mater Christi Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Your suitability to work with children and young people will form part of the selection process. Prior to appointment Mater Christi Trust will apply for a satisfactory enhanced Disclosure and Barring check, a Children’s Barred list check, two satisfactory references, satisfactory pre-employment health screening, carry out online searches for shortlisted candidates, and for Teachers, a Prohibition Check in relation to the children’s workforce. In some settings a Declaration will be required in order to meet our obligations under the ‘Disqualification under the Childcare Act 2006’.
