Who is the Constellation Trust?

Our Vision – A ‘child centred’ trust where forward-thinking, like-minded academies work together to achieve the best opportunities and outcomes for our young people. Ourgoal is to provide the best education for all children taught in our trust, share great practice and ideas to the benefit of all.

Our Trust includes primaries, secondaries and an alternative provision all working together to provide the best learning opportunities for the pupils within our network of schools. Each school serves its own community and has its own unique identity. Together we benefit from working in partnership, share good practice and have a joint central service support team.

Our focus is on continual school improvement to ensure that all children are afforded the best possible opportunities to achieve and exceed their potential. Our schools are at differing stages on the journey to being judged or sustaining the Ofsted judgement of "Outstanding". As a collective we have the capacity to support each other. Our Teaching Partnership, Blueprint Alliance adds to our capacity and the expertise available to Trust schools by enabling access to external and internal CPD, sharing best practice and delivering independent evaluation of our performance. Yorkshire and Humber Teacher Training (SCITT), works on a regional basis to ensure we recruit and retain high calibre teachers who enjoy working within our organisation. Our Trust prides itself on providing a friendly, caring, family of schools where everything we do is for the benefit of the children and families that we serve. We encourage pupils to have a ‘love of learning’ so that they become life-long learners and achieve to the very best of their abilities.

The Constellation Trust is a forward thinking and innovative organisation where a passionate and dynamic team work together to maximise opportunities in the best interest of our pupils. Together we made a difference.

I look forward to welcoming you to The Constellation Trust.

Why come to Hull?

We have the ideal location. A culturally vibrant city with a new sense of purpose; the ideal location and place to call home.

Hull’s individual character can be sensed everywhere – from its unique cream telephone boxes to its distinctive theatre, comedy and music scenes; and from its bustling quayside cafes, bars and shops to its Streetlife and Maritime Museums, where the city’s extraordinary past comes to life.

Hull’s deep connection with the sea is celebrated in the redevelopment of both its historic dock quarter and its commercial docks which are experiencing a new lease of life as Green Port Hull. The city also sits within the beautiful East Riding of Yorkshire with its blue flag beaches, the East Yorkshire Wolds, and picturesque market towns.
