About Peterborough Diocese Education Trust
Welcome from the CEO
Peterborough Diocese Education Trust (PDET) is a multi-academy trust formed by the Peterborough Diocese Board of Education as a natural home for church schools in the Peterborough Diocese that wish to become an academy and part of a MAT.
We believe that we can achieve more by working together as one highly committed team, to ensure that every child within our Trust experiences an excellent education and realises their God-given potential to flourish. We embrace the Church of England’s Vision for Education, seeking to educate for wisdom and knowledge, hope and aspiration, community and living well together and dignity and respect. We believe in the infinite worth of each person; children deserve the very best education and hence, we support our colleagues to provide this.
Our family of academies / schools have their own unique identities, seeking to serve their local communities. They are inclusive, welcoming children of the Christian faith, of other faiths or of no faith. Although the multi-academy trust was formed initially to support church schools, the Trust is happy to work with any community school that shares its vision and values.

More About PDET
PDET academies are spread across the Peterborough Diocese from Ryhall (a village near Stamford) in the north to Silverstone and Staverton in the South and West. Between these we have academies in all parts of Northamptonshire and Peterborough. The Trust has developed cluster working through a formal programme, which facilitates our academies and their staff to work together on all kinds of curriculum and educational developments. We regard this as a strength of our Trust. Although PDET is large enough to enable a great deal of shared development and the ability to support all of the academies from within the Trust, those of us in the central team pride ourselves on knowing our academies and their staff well. There are good links between the staff in our academies.
Our academies deliver education to pupils of all faiths and none. Many of our staff would not describe themselves as regular church attenders, but feel that they are able to subscribe to the values that we consider important to schools / academies that set out to achieve outstanding education within a distinctly Christian ethos. It is a commonly used phrase to say, “our staff are our greatest asset” however, we feel that in our case it goes beyond just words. We support our staff in many different ways.
We would love to give you the opportunity to hear what we have to offer you and find out how you can contribute to the education of our pupils - we hope that you decide to join a caring MAT that is making a real difference to the lives of children across a large number of academies.
