We used an innovative approach to
raising student aspirations with a key
stage 3 awards ceremony.

Students from across the Trust and their
parents were invited to an Exceptional
Achievement Awards Ceremony to
celebrate the achievements of students
who have shown progression in their
performance.

Chief Executive Officer of the Trust, Jo Morgan,
utilised her speech to inspire students saying:
“You are here because you had the courage and
confidence to reach for the stars- to live your
dreams and work hard for your success.

“Education is the pathway to enable freedom, choice
and independence. Whether you want to be a brain
surgeon, astronaut, nuclear physicist or leader of the
UN, the power you have is in your hands.”

The exciting and well-organised day, held at Keele Hall,
Staffordshire, was to celebrate the students who have
exceeded expectations, not just those who have achieved
the top grades.
