We are proud to be part of Durrington Multi Academy Trust
Children have one chance at education and it is the core purpose of everyone in the Durrington Multi Academy Trust (DMAT) team to ensure, whatever their starting point, they will achieve and succeed. Our schools and teams work together to:
- Ensure excellence from all, for all
- Transform the life chances of young people and their community
- Raise aspirations by believing that, together, we can achieve beyond our expectations.
Children are at the heart of everything we do; we strive for excellence and want them to be happy, confident learners who thrive and succeed.
Our teams work together to raise aspirations, believing that together we can all achieve beyond our expectations.
We are proud that our Trust is made up of different settings, including Durrington High School, The Laurels Primary School, Ringmer Primary and Nursery School, Oak Tree Primary School, Durrington Research School and the Southdowns SCITT (school centred initial teacher training). It is this diversity and difference that gives us our strength and broadens our knowledge base of what works best for children.
