ABOUT US WHO WE ARE

Formed

in 2017, The Success for

All Educational

Trust was created as a result of an invitation from the DfE to the current CEO Paul Ward in recognition of the rapid improvement of Redden Court School (now an Ofsted graded Outstanding school) where he had been Headteacher since 2009.

The trust community includes three secondary schools, Redden Court School, The Royal Liberty School, Sanders Draper School and the two primary schools Rise Park Infants and Rise Park Junior.

He insisted that the name of the Trust should reflect the overall vision of the Trust in that all stakeholders should be given the opportunity to be successful as part of our provision and offer.

Our schools are all located geographically within the London Borough Havering in North East London and serves both areas of significant deprivation as well as more affluent areas. Although the majority of students are from a white British background our schools are becoming increasingly more diverse.

Our schools range in size from 3 to 7 forms of entry with an overall current student number of approximately 3000. Our annual trust budget is approximately £20 million and in recent years we have carried out over £30 million worth of building works in our schools.

Our governance is made up of mainly local people, with a wide variety of skillsets and backgrounds. Local committees work at school level to monitor the areas of Teaching and Learning and Student Matters, whilst the Trustees are responsible for the performance of the Trust Schools as a whole.

The prospect of further growth is exciting for us as we are keen to work with new schools, recognising the exciting opportunities that are possible when working closely together within a trust.

“Having just joined the Trust in September, I was genuinely so impressed by the INSET day and by the quality of CPD that is on offer to all staff here. It has been a long time since I’ve attended CPD of this quality. As a senior leader, you’re so often focused on strategy and the day-to-day running of the school that you don’t often get to attend training to help with your own classroom practice. It was refreshing to be afforded the time and opportunity to stop and think about things like my own questioning strategies. The chance to hear from external providers across a range of issues was really valuable, as was the chance to meet colleagues from other schools.”
