Who we are

OUR STORY

Continuously Growing Together

In 2016, we came together as a group of Catholic schools wanting to support each other to consistently deliver exceptional educational experiences for all the children in our care.

When deciding our name, we wanted something different, memorable and meaningful. The Jesuit missionary, St Francis Xavier, was a teacher and gave much of his time to teaching children, realising that they were the future. Despite encountering difficulties and resistance, he never gave up. Inspired by Saint Francis Xavier, we continue to go wherever we are needed and can help; we learn from and share our ethos and faith with all we work with​. As teachers, governors, directors and support staff in our Trust, we devote ourselves to serving the children and spreading the good news of the Gospel and to never give up on our mission, like St Francis.

Since then, we have grown to include 17 schools - 14 primary and 3 secondary schools – and proudly continue to learn from and grow with every new school we welcome into our Trust family.
