At the heart of Brooke Weston Trust is a clear commitment to ensuring our students are supported to fully achieve their potential and live rewarding lives. 

We strive to ensure that every child, regardless of background or ability, can thrive physically, emotionally, and academically. High-quality physical education plays a vital role in making this a reality.

More than just games and competition, school sport plays a vital role in bringing our values of Ambition For All and Excellent Teaching and Support to life. It builds confidence, promotes inclusion, and helps every child discover what they’re capable of, both inside and outside the classroom.

We aim for the highest standards in all we do, and PE is no exception. This National School Sports Week, we’re proud to celebrate how our schools are bringing this vision to life by creating environments where every student can enjoy, succeed, and grow through sport.

Eighteen wonderful women who work across the trust have just celebrated completing the Springboard Women’s Development programme.

Corby Technical School (CTS) hosted a highly successful careers fair on March 13th, providing students with opportunities to connect with potential employers and explore diverse career pathways.

This World Book Day, we’re shining a spotlight on the incredible librarians across our secondary schools and their vital role in nurturing a love of reading within their schools.

At Brooke Weston Trust, we believe reading is a Ticket For Life, equipping students with the essential skills they will need, no matter where their future takes them.

To celebrate, we spoke with five of our passionate librarians - Wendy Mann (Brooke Weston Academy), Claire Keelan (Corby Business Academy), Sophie Cunningham (Corby Technical School), Elaine Galer (Kettering Science Academy) and Leanne Robinson (Thomas Clarkson Academy).

They shared their journeys, insights, and the joys of inspiring young readers every day:

As we celebrate this year’s National Apprenticeship Week, we’re highlighting the valuable opportunities available to our employees across the Trust. Alongside our comprehensive Centre for Professional Development offering, apprenticeships provide another valuable pathway for professional growth. Covering areas from teaching assistants to digital, finance and wellbeing, our apprenticeship offering equips staff with new skills, enhances career progression, and supports our commitment to high-quality, accessible CPD – a key strand in our recent People Strategy.

To showcase the impact of these opportunities, we spoke to two colleagues from across the Trust about their apprenticeship journeys. Solma Hussain, Administrator at Brooke Weston Academy, and Josh Bonnar, HR Administrator at Brooke Weston Academy, share their experiences and insights:
