Chorus Education Trust

Chorus Education Trust logo

Chorus believes that every child in our trust deserves the best education possible. We also believe that there is outstanding expertise across our region that can be harnessed to make this happen. Collaboration is a key part of our ethos.

In addition to primary and secondary schools within the trust, Chorus includes the South Yorkshire Teaching Hub, which is approved to deliver the Department for Education’s ‘golden thread’ of support, training and development of teachers and school leaders, working with 300 schools across Sheffield and Rotherham plus schools in North Derbyshire.  This extends from initial teacher training, through early career training and on to the delivery of National Professional Qualifications (NPQs) for current and aspiring school leaders.

The Chorus ethos is ‘Outstanding Achievement for All'. We want to create a culture of success in which children and young people can succeed. We do this through the provision of safe and supportive schools, collaborating to ensure that young people benefit from a more effective spend of public money.

Bradwell Junior School joined Chorus Education Trust on 1 December 2023.
