Our vision is to be a key provider for quality education so that all of our students leave us as highly qualified, confident and articulate young people with a wealth of experience.
A Mulberry education is premised on three under-pinning principles:
- Access to education and the chance to be educated is a human right in a civilised world.
A state school, like those in the Mulberry Schools Trust, should provide a high quality education for every child regardless of the barriers. As well as the intrinsic value in this, there are important social and economic reasons for doing this that affect the peace and security of our society profoundly. - Education should provide rich intellectual and personal development for individuals and communities of people.
An education offered by the Trust is concerned with the spiritual, moral, social, cultural and physical development of people so they have self-determination and can create for themselves fulfilled, happy lives. It is also concerned with equipping people for employment, making a contribution to the economy as well as enabling them to sustain themselves financially. - Education is a public good.
To have universal school education brings economic and social benefits to the whole of society as well as enriching the human condition: it creates greater peace, prosperity and economic and social wellbeing. The Mulberry Schools Trust is outward facing and contributes to education beyond the doors of its own schools.
These principles shape the aims of the Trust’s education: the curriculum that is delivered, the personal development that is offered and the wider opportunities for enrichment that are provided.
