Academies Enterprise Trust
This Federation of Academies embraces new technologies in world class learning facilities, building on the best practice and experiences that each of the previous schools has developed over a number of years. By sharing common standard operating procedures, frameworks and policies we will be developing Academies that can lead an educational evolution rather than revolution on their way to sustainable high performing status.
Personalised Learning Platforms
With all schools having to address the concept of a personalised learning platform which is accessible on a 24/7 basis it is important to explore those that will make the teachers role and the student's learning opportunities and hence:
Increase student motivation
Improve exam results
Reduce staff workload
Engage parents
The eZe personalised learning platform emulates and enhances existing teaching practice and is proven to increase effectiveness in learning and teaching, at school and at home. Navigating from the timetable page, a maximum of 3 clicks is all you need.

School Intervention
ESI aims help schools develop the capacity to transform through the provision of high quality leadership, management and consultancy services. With an increasing number of schools being placed in Special Measures by Her Majesty’s Inspectors, there is an ever-increasing need for highly skilled and effective ‘Intervention Teams’. The ‘school-turnaround’ model that has been successfully employed is the Gestalt model.
