About The Education Alliance
Our story:
The Education Alliance Multi-Academy Trust was established in 2015 so that South Hunsley School and Sixth Form College could support the setting up of Hunsley Primary School, the East Riding’s first Free School. In February 2016, Malet Lambert School, an 11-16 school in Hull, joined the trust and the following year, Driffield School and Sixth Form joined as a sponsored academy. The Snaith School, an 11-16 school joined us in April 2019 and North Cave CE Primary School in November 2019. Howden Junior School joined us October 2022 followed by Wilberfoss CE Primary School in May 2023. Howden CE Infant School joined us in September 2023 followed by Naburn CE Primary School who joined on 1 October as a sponsored academy.
In addition to the ten schools, the trust also operates Yorkshire Wolds Teacher Training, the only Outstanding SCITT based in East Yorkshire, which is training a new generation of primary and secondary teachers in East Riding and Hull.
Our people:
The Education Alliance is led by CEO, Jonny Uttley, who is an experienced Headteacher and a National Leader of Education. Ethical leadership is at the heart of everything we do and we believe in the importance of local leadership and governance to keep our schools at the heart of the communities they serve. All our leaders have a strong moral obligation to the success of all our young people and it is through a genuine commitment to team working that we seek to add value to all our schools.
Our purpose:
We are here to make great schools and happier, stronger communities so that people have better lives.
How we do this:
The way we do this is by:
- Always doing what is right
- Trusting in each other and standing shoulder to shoulder
- Doing what we know makes the difference
Doing what is right means always acting with integrity, in the interests of others, and being honest, open and transparent.
