In our seven unique primary schools, we strive to ensure that learning is unstoppable, and aspirations have no limit, enabling all children to flourish, no matter what their starting point. A rich and unique curriculum in each school promotes creativity, curiosity and a love for learning that will equip our pupils for success throughout each phase of their education.
Our values of community, integrity and opportunity form the foundations for our sustainable approach to school improvement and quality assurance to ensure we support all our schools to continue to achieve excellent outcomes for pupils. We also recognise how collaboration has enabled us to continually improve and so are always looking for new partners to join us on our journey.
Orwell Academy Trust is expected to grow, with a number of additional schools becoming part of the Trust during this contract period and the provision of IT & Networks services at these schools when they have joined the Trust will fall under the scope of this contract. The successful Supplier will be expected to provide this service at these additional schools using the same costing model applied to the successful tender submission. The duration of contract for these schools will not be increased and they will join the contract for the remaining contract period that exists at the point of entry into the Trust.
