The Mead Educational Trust

The Mead Educational Trust TMET exists to make a positive difference to the life chances of children and young people and to our wider community.

The Mead Educational Trust (TMET) is a well-established, respected multi academy trust in Leicestershire, with a growing family of primary and secondary schools. Formed in 2014, The Mead Educational Trust (TMET) is a well-established, respected multi academy trust in Leicestershire, with a growing family of primary and secondary schools. At the heart of all we do is a commitment to provide our pup

ils access to a world-class education, our schools with excellent school-to-school support, and our staff with high quality professional development. We value cross phase work and have deliberately recruited a mix of primary and secondary schools into the Trust. All our schools have common values and core operational systems, applied locally with adaptations for individual contexts and needs. Through our SCITT and Teaching School Hub we provide excellent professional development opportunities and actively spot and nurture leadership potential. At the helm of our Trust is a group of carefully chosen trustees, leaders of education and key leaders within both the wider and business community. These conscientiously selected guardians of our Trust, supported by our core central team and effective business management systems, ensure that we keep exceptional education provision at our core.

Meet our Mead schools! 👋

This week, we're looking at Fosse Mead Primary Academy - a truly global school, where children and families from all over the world join together to learn and grow. At the heart of the school is a love of reading, helping pupils to develop the confidence and knowledge they need to succeed both in the classroom and beyond. Alongside a strong focus on academic learning, pupils also enjoy incredible sporting opportunities (including some of the best skipping skills we've ever seen!) and enrichment experiences.

Fosse Mead is a place where every child is encouraged to achieve their full potential and feel a true sense of belonging.

This week, we have been shining a light on the volunteers who made a positive impact across our Trust 💡

At Kibworth Mead Academy, the valuable support of volunteers has been momentous at various school events such as:

🌟 The Reading Buddies Programme that helped strengthen students’ reading skills

🌟 An art competition where Four members of the local Rotary Club took the time out to volunteer as judges

🌟 A Speed Networking day for Year 9 students to gain an insight about their careers in the future

'It was good to meet new people and find out about their jobs...'' - student in Year 9

Thank you! 👏

At our TMET schools, we are committed to strengthening parental engagement and building meaningful partnerships with families 🤝

Fosse Mead Primary Academy held a successful ‘Meet the Team’ event, giving parents and guardians the opportunity to learn more about the support available for their child 🗣️

Mrs Hussey, Principal at the primary school, is pleased to introduce a newly-formed pastoral team, who will work closely with families to ensure that their child has the best possible opportunity to succeed through all stages of school and life 😊

We captured a short video of the event 📹

If you’ve tuned into BBC news today, you may have seen Sara McAdam, Director of The Mead Institute, talking about the new ways that we’re trying to attract and retain teachers.

Sara, along with staff at North Mead academy, appeared on BBC Breakfast, BBC Radio 4 Today and BBC News programmes as the government revealed that the school workforce has shrunk for the first time since 2019.

At our Leicester & Leicestershire SCITT, we’re focusing on ways to make teacher training more accessible, inclusive, flexible, and compatible with people’s real lives - whether they’re a parent, late stage career changer, or recent graduate. As an organisation, we’re also focusing on improving flexibility for teachers in our schools.

We're so proud of students and staff at Brook Mead Academy for this brilliant solution to creating affordable and sustainable prom outfits! 👏

Students came up with idea of asking their local community, including local businesses, to donate outfits that can be hired by students and altered to fit them perfectly. The outfits will then be returned so that they can be used by students again in future years. 💡
