Specialisms

Trust schools pride themselves on having a rich curriculum offer which provides opportunities beyond the core academic provision.

All Trust schools benefit from the support and expertise of a specialist senior lead who works across the Trust in the following areas, with an individual school acting as a specialist hub in some cases.

Chaplaincy

The Trust chaplaincy team provides a range of services supporting our ethos, including leading worship in assemblies and Communion services, designing the pastoral programme and organising/leading a range of extra-curricular activities.

Digital

The Trust Lead Computing, based at Ada Lovelace, leads the digital specialism. Ada Lovelace school's partnership with IBM benefits all of the schools across the Trust in the form of visits to IBM offices, workshops and access to SkillsBuild digital badges.

Music

The Trust's Head of Music Specialism supports an extensive and award winning offer of individual music tuition, choirs, ensembles, bands and other extra-curricular music at our schools.

Languages

The Trust's Head of Language Specialism leads the provision of a wide range of extra-curricular opportunities including exchanges and visits to cultural events. She is also involved in developing provision in partner primary schools and use in the UK of the ground-breaking immersion teaching technique called AIM (Accelerated Integrated Methodology).

Ada Lovelace CofE High School is home to Thames West Language Network.
