Formed in 2012, Discovery, is a well established and respected partnership of 13 primary and 2 SEND secondary schools in Leicestershire, Leicester City and Rutland Our schools share a fundamental belief in the power of partnership and collaboration in improving the opportunities and outcomes for pupils and staff alike.
Within Discovery, all schools, leaders and pupils are encouraged to share their expertise and knowledge to help everyone reach their full potential, this is accomplished through collaborative learning and the removal of barriers to support everyone to achieve.
‘Our Vision’
Discovery Trust aspires to achieve excellence in all areas of our work. The children and families we work with have confidence in the teachers and leaders of the Trust who act with integrity and demonstrate respect for individual needs. Discovery aspires for all our schools to become sustainable and altruistic, driven by a passion for working in partnership with all stakeholders.
In 2015 a specialist support service for schools (EPIC) was established that’s schools could commission to help promote emotional well-being and remove barriers to learning. One of the increasingly difficult challenges faced by school leaders is the access to highly trained specialists who are able to assess and provide effective support and interventions for our pupils who present with SEND.
Discovery believes strongly
that we need to invest appropriately in this support and as such has developed
a significant strategy to support these pupils as well all pupils at a
universal level.
The EPIC team plan their work strategically
to ensure that all schools in the partnership access high quality, research
informed CPDL and specialist support. This emphasis on learning is core to
Discovery and helps upskill our workforce to meet the needs of our pupils
rather than having to always rely upon third party support.
We particularly welcome applications from under represented groups including ethnicity, gender, transgender, age, disability, sexual orientation or religion
