I'm delighted that you are interested in finding out more about Abbey Mead Primary Academy . Abbey Mead is part of The Mead Educational Trust (TMET), a growing family of eight primary and five secondary schools in Leicester and Leicestershire.
While all Mead schools are unique, we are united in the belief that together we make a positive difference – to the life chances of our children, to our communities and to each other.
At the heart of all we do is a commitment to provide our pupils with access to a world-class education, our schools with excellent school-to-school support, and our staff with high quality professional development. All Mead schools work closely together to provide a wide range of experiences and opportunities for our pupils sharing expertise and widening their horizons.
We have seven values across our family of schools, called the Seven Cs: character, challenge, collaboration, community, courage, creativity and culture. We instil these values in our pupils and we use them as the basis of how we work together and treat each other.
In the school’s own words, from the school website.
