The Family of Schools
The Trust was built upon the foundation of a mutual set of guiding principles ranging from inclusion, safeguarding and staff well-being to ultimately serving our communities and ensuring our children achieve the very best outcomes regardless of their relative abilities or socio-economic backgrounds (not just in the basic 3R’s). Collaborative working is key to the success of the trust, but we also promote autonomy when schools successfully operate by our guiding principles. We are not an exclusive set of schools and when appropriate. we encourage them to work with other schools outside the trust. This approach has ensured community success and greater experiences for our children and young people.
Our family of schools now educates 2,400 pupils and works with 350 staff. We also work with outside agencies such as Warrington Local Authority. Greater numbers will ultimately increase responsibility and accountability, but it will also offer greater opportunities for all. As we grow our trust must ensure that we enrich the experiences for children, young people and adults.

Birchwood Community High School

Message from our CEO, Gary Cunningham
I am extremely proud to welcome you to One Community Trust. Our Trust came into being on 1st September 2019 and consists of seven Warrington Community Primary Schools and one Warrington Community Secondary School. Our schools serve different local communities and vary in size, the largest of which has over 700 children and the smallest of which has a little over 200. Within our schools we have seven specialist provisions and all our schools are passionate about inclusion and success for all. Our schools have the autonomy to create, explore and learn from different practices. Staff at each school are passionate, dedicated and loyal.
