School Improvement Strategy
At the heart of our core offer to schools is access to a wide range of professional services which aim to enable school leaders to focus on their core purpose; aspiring to ensure that all pupils in our schools receive an ambitious high-quality Catholic curriculum. Pupils will leave our schools with a strong faith and the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in a competitive world. We must continue to ask and challenge ourselves if we have given our pupils what they need to succeed in modern Britain and the wider world.
Directors at Emmaus CAT have agreed a central contribution for each school. The central contribution provides centralised services, adding capacity, enabling schools to raise educational standards and support with the delivery of great education.
Our School Improvement Strategy
School improvement is strongest when schools work together. This brings a sense of collaboration and constructive challenge; and summon concrete, positive change, when we work together. The Emmaus CAT structure, we believe, involves a much deeper, long-term commitment to schools, pupils and communities that face difficulties or challenges and will help us to keep improving our successful schools. At Emmaus CAT, we aspire to ensure that all pupils in our schools receive an ambitious high quality Catholic curriculum. This is driven by faith, a moral purpose, and a desire to enable social mobility and equality in educational opportunities. It is built on an honest, challenging, and open culture, partnership working and shared determination for success in every school.
The aim of our school improvement strategy is to outline how the Emmaus CAT Central Team and all stakeholders can work together to support all our schools to improve and change. Emmaus CAT has adopted a partnership approach to implementing this strategy with high levels of trust and coordination between the Central Team, the Emmaus Development Board, and school-based leaders. All stakeholders within Emmaus CAT play a crucial role in supporting their peers to improve standards and outcomes for pupils ensuring they access a broad and rich Catholic curriculum.

Our Guiding Principles
At Emmaus CAT, we passionately believe in schools having their own individuality underpinned by Guiding Principles and have developed a suite of guiding principles to support school leaders to deliver aligned autonomy in their schools. These guiding principles set the direction and scope for each area. Guiding principles are not exhaustive and should be used as the building blocks for each school’s autonomous approach. Guiding principles will be co-constructed throughout the academic year with input from headteachers and key school staff.
