Welcome from our CEO

DSC_0006 Shirley Crop - Copy

Beckfoot Trust is a diverse family of 10 schools (4 Primary, 2 Special, 4 Secondary) closely located in the Bradford area. Formed in 2013 we now educate over 7000 young people and employ over 1000 staff. Our core purpose is to align to our mission of ‘creating remarkable schools where no child is left behind’ and to live our values of enjoy, learn, succeed. I took up position as CEO of Beckfoot Trust in September 2021 following the retirement of the founding CEO, David Horn. I am immensely proud to be leading a multi-academy trust that serves the local area and is so committed to its mission. I am sure, like me, you will find the moral-purpose of every school in our Trust quite simply palpable.
