It is our mission to make a difference to the lives of children, young people and their families.

We enrich the lives and educational experience of learners with special educational needs, preparing them for their future contributions to a dynamic society, and with that ethos, professional development is at the heart of what we do.
Horizons Education Trust was delighted to host teachers representing all the Trust Academies at Spring Common Academy, Huntingdon for a training conference presented by Gemma Aukett – Thinking Matters, “Understanding the Science of Learning”.

Kim Taylor, CEO, Horizons Education Trust shared that, “Exciting news today is that teachers across Horizons Education Trust are receiving training from ‘Thinking Matters’ on the Science of learning to develop wider understanding of metacognition and how to support our pupils to become self – regulated learners. Research evidence indicates that this metacognitive knowledge about the brain and thinking can make a difference and enable teachers to deepen the effectiveness of teaching for all learners.”
