INMAT was created in 2017 with a teaching school at the heart of its work, with just 4 schools at that point. We are now a group of 11 primary schools that have joined together to harness the richness of diverse learning communities for the benefit of all pupils.
The ethos behind the Trust is one of sustainable school improvement; schools joining the Trust do so with the prime aim of improving themselves and each other so that they can all become outstanding schools driven by a self-improving system.
At the heart of what we do is the notion of working together and being relentless in our pursuit of excellence to create the best opportunities in our schools and where we make everyday count.
In order to stay relevant in the ever-changing world, we at INMAT are open to change and challenge. The world is fast-paced, and it is important we keep up. We welcome new ideas and perspectives, as long as they always put our children’s interests first.
