The Primary First Trust

We are a Trust that truly celebrates and nurtures the diversity and distinctiveness of its partner schools. We are a growing network of 11 individual primaries across Bexley, Gravesham and Medway. All are at different points in their journey - each with a unique context, considerable strengths and specific opportunities. Our refreshingly collaborative way of working, enviable track record and deep understanding of primary-based learning gives us an unmistakeable edge in driving up standards in every area of school life. Our Vision is to be First for Primary Education. First Class - for outcomes and overall pupil experience First Choice - for parents choosing a school and for staff developing their careers First Voice -as thought-leaders, pushing boundaries and raising standards. Our innovative approach to education leadership is rooted in a simple belief: We grow stronger by working together. We are a Schools Group - and not just a group of schools. The distinction is important. It means that we are so much more than the sum of our parts, adding real, tangible value across the portfolio, allowing our schools to grow stronger than they ever could as standalones, or in loose affiliation. The upshot is a collaborative leadership model that eschews 'one size fits all' in favour of distinct voices, open minds and shared learning.
