2-5 Year Strategic Plan

We have an Incredibly Ambitious Five-Year Plan

By 2030-31, Sancta Familia Catholic Academy Trust will be internationally renowned for excellence in faith formation, service, and academic progress.

This is our four step process to get there:

Step 1: Establish baseline policies and operating systems across all key functions whilst codifying what we mean by our pillars: excellence across faith; service; personal development, and academic progress; clarifying and agreeing the entitlements for staff, students, and families at a Sancta Familia School.
Step 2: Estates, IT and AI strategy launched - operating systems become embedded (HR, Talent, Finance, Curriculum, Teaching and Learning, SEND and Safeguarding) and driven as a service to schools - codified examples of our pillars are shared more widely across the education sector, Sancta Support initiated (outreach to schools and Trusts).
Step 3: Operating systems across functions support schools to drive excellence, entitlements for students, staff, and families are lived and planned for across all schools so that every member of our community receives the best standard education possible in terms of resources and delivery; Sancta Support initiated and starts to generate income.
Step 4: Internationally renowned for excellence in faith formation, service, development of talents and academic progress.
