Creating schools that stand out at the heart of our communities

We are a family of 22 schools across Derbyshire who believe that by working together as a team, we can create schools that stand out at the heart of their communities.

Welcome message from our Trust Leader.

Embark Federation is a family of 22 schools across Derbyshire who are working collaboratively to achieve our vision which is to ‘create schools that stand out at the heart of their community.’ We firmly believe that each school is unique and serves its community and as a trust we can support schools to be able do that effectively.

We are guided by our four core values; Family, Integrity, Teamwork and Success and have made all our key decisions as a trust with these at the forefront of our mind.

Our purpose is to enable all our stakeholders to be able to ‘Love Learning, Love Life’ and this drives us forward every day.

As a trust we provide a wide range of additional opportunities for our schools and young people and work closely with businesses in partnership to allow us to do so.

Our staff are very important to us as a trust and we have provided a number of additional benefits and liaise with a key group of staff from all schools to listen intently and help meet their needs.

Our governance family is thriving and we have incredible volunteers at Local governor, trustees and member level.

Thank you for showing an interest in Embark and please enjoy exploring the website.

Family

Family is very important to our federation. Like every family, we want our young people to feel safe and secure. In our family, we care for each other and hope, dream, learn and play together.

Integrity

Integrity, to us, means ‘doing the right thing when nobody is watching’. Trust and respect are key values for us and are inherent in everything we do in our schools and as a federation.

Teamwork

We truly believe that we are stronger together, which is why we joined this federation. Sharing ideas and excellent practice, supporting our colleagues to overcome hurdles, and achieving greater things give us great satisfaction.

Success

Success, to us, means every young person and adult fulfilling their potential. We do not place a ceiling on what can be achieved, and we strive for everyone in our federation to ‘be the best they can be.’
