Welcome to The Sigma Trust. We are a local partnership of 13 academies in North East Essex formally established in September 2016. Since coming together in 2016 we have grown to become the largest multi-academy trust working solely in Essex. At The Sigma Trust we believe we are stronger and more successful working together rather than as individual institutions. This is embedded in our mission statement; to be ‘Greater Than The Sum Of Its Parts’. By working together, our vision is to ensure that all of our academies are at least ‘Good’ with strong and improving outcomes. We value the following attributes: - Integrity: be honest, transparent, trustworthy and true to your beliefs. - Passion: be positive and enthusiastic about what you are trying to achieve. - Aspiration: aim for your best and set high, realistic goals. - Resilience: never give up and strive to improve. - Accountability: take responsibility for your words, thoughts and actions. - Respect: for yourself, your environment and other people. We believe education should foster in its learners a curiosity to discover who they are and what they are capable of. Together with, developing the resilience for them to test the boundaries of their abilities and built the skills necessary to face the future with confidence.
