Local academy trust shortlisted for prestigious education awards
Consilium Academies, a multi-academy trust operating across the North of England, has been shortlisted for two prestigious national awards recognising outstanding leadership and community partnerships in education.
In the North East, the Trust includes Heworth Grange, Washington Academy, Thornhill Academy, and Consilium Evolve, which serve thousands of children across the region. Together, these schools focus on high standards, inclusion and supporting every young person to achieve their potential.
The nomination for Trust Executive Team of the Year celebrates the collective leadership of Consilium Academies Executive Team in driving strategic improvement across all its academies.
At the core of this recognition is the team’s commitment to putting children, young people and staff at the heart of every decision. Their leadership is rooted not only in strong governance and strategic direction, but in compassion, integrity and a deep belief that people come first.
The Civic Partnership of the Year nomination recognises the Foundations for Learning Project, a partnership between Consilium Academies, Robert Bell, Principal of Consilium Evolve and the NHS. This initiative brings together education and health services to provide children and young people with the support they need to thrive academically and personally.
Michael McCarthy, CEO of Consilium Academies, said: "We are thrilled to be recognised in these prestigious awards. These nominations celebrate the dedication of our Executive Team and the strength of our partnerships in supporting young people. Working together with Robert Bell and the NHS has shown what can be achieved when education and health unite for the benefit of our children and communities."
The trust looks forward to the awards ceremony later this year, celebrating excellence in leadership and partnership across the country’s academy trusts.
