If the Schools White Paper has made you think about joining a Trust, consider what strong partnership looks like. At Strive4 Academy Trust, we focus on coherence, improvement and impact—not just expansion. Let’s talk. #Education #MAT #SchoolImprovement

We’re recruiting teachers to join Strive4 Academy Trust. If you want to make a difference and want excellence for every pupil, we would love to hear from you! Apply here: www.raylodgeprimary.co.uk

We are seeking an exceptional SENDCo to join our www.farnhamgreen.org.uk team. Inclusion sits at the heart of school improvement. The role of SENDCo is pivotal; ensuring every child is seen and supported - academically, socially & emotionally. Join us. Make a difference. Shape the future.

We’re recruiting a Compliance & Risk Lead at Strive4 Academy Trust. Strong compliance means strong schools. Solutions-focused. Impact-driven. Interested? Get in touch - strive4academy.co.uk/Vacancies-20...

We are opening doors for London RISE Open Education Fortnight 👋 See how curriculum design, pedagogy and codified norms drive outcomes — even in highly mobile, high-deprivation contexts 📅 10, 16 & 17 March School, trust & system leaders welcome. www.farnhamgreen.org.uk/RISE/

Partnering with @Best Practice allows us to play our part in shaping the future of education — growing leaders who can sustain excellence, build strong cultures and lead schools with confidence, clarity and compassion.

Leadership isn’t about detachment or having all the answers. It’s about training yourself to stay grounded when uncertainty shows up — because it always does. Our ability to stay grounded isn’t innate; it’s learned, practised, and, at times, tested.

Burns Night reminds us that words matter. Leadership is shaped by the language we use and the voices we value. 🥃📖 #BurnsNight #Leadership #Education

✨ Happy Hanukkah ✨ Wishing a joyful Hanukkah to everyone celebrating — a time to reflect on resilience, hope, and the power of light even in the darkest moments. 🕯️ May this festival of lights bring peace, warmth, and happiness to you and your loved ones. Chag Sameach!

Yes! Congratulations especially to @FarnhamGreen for Mr Lee’s NPQEL and Mrs Hahlani’s NPQH! Proud of you both! What a leadership team!

Reflecting on a fast-paced term, proud of our School Improvement Team - working in partnership with 7 schools across London & Essex, strengthening leadership, enhancing curriculum, and developing SEND provision. A team with purpose, professionalism, and belief in what’s possible. 💜💚

Absolutely inspiring! 🎨 Love seeing schools, artists & families come together to showcase young talent. The arts aren’t an add-on — they’re essential for building confidence, creativity & joy in children. #PrimaryEducation #ArtsMatter

HAF club bookings are now open for Ray Lodge Primary School. This will run 30.12.25 & 02.01.26. Parents and carers can make bookings here: eequ.org/redbridgehaf. Please book early to avoid disappointment. #opportunities #everysecondcounts

The countdown begins - the showcase and final exhibition - 5 schools, 4 artists + 1000s of children and their families! Special thanks to @ArtHoppers @remiiyariver & Wildsuga #strive4 #artmatters #redbridgeschoolstogether

A full-on day at @RayLodgePrimary prepping for next week’s joint showcase and final exhibition; a joy seeing it all come together! 5 schools, 4 artists and thousands of children + families. Made possible by Colours of Redbridge, Strive4 Academy Trust & Arts Council England.

20 years of learning, leading and juggling motherhood along the way. I’ve learned that calm, steady leadership matters most — and that nothing meaningful is achieved alone. Grateful for the people, the lessons and the privilege. 💜💚 #Headteacher #Leadership #20Years

🎨 Proud to be part of making this happen! Year 5 & 6 pupils at Barley Lane Primary showcased their creativity in a stunning art exhibition with artist Remiiya Badru — celebrating aspiration, diversity & possibilities through art. 💚💜 #Strive4Excellence #CreativeEducation

🌍🔬 Happy #WorldScienceDay! At Strive4 Academy Trust, science is more than a subject — it’s a way of thinking. 🧪 We nurture curiosity 🌿 Inspire investigation 💡 Empower young innovators Here’s to the teachers and pupils who make science come alive every day! 💫 #STEM #Education #InspiringFutures

Excited to welcome our students back on Monday! 🌟 A fresh term = new opportunities to learn, grow & make memories. Thank you, parents, for your support—together we help our children thrive! 💛💚 #BackToSchool #ParentPartnership #LearningTogether

The ingredients for sustained school improvement! What’s missing! 👇

October is ADHD Awareness Month - a vital time to deepen understanding, challenge misconceptions, & celebrate. In education, awareness isn’t enough; it’s about building environments where every mind can thrive. #ADHDAwarenessMonth #Inclusion #Neurodiversity #EducationLeadership

✨ Excited for today as we welcome school leaders from across our Trust — and beyond — to Day 1 of the Strive4 Leadership Programme 2025. ⭐️🌟💫✨

London: 11 RISE schools, 9 advisers. North West: 32 RISE schools, 9 advisers. If RISE is about fairness + impact, adviser deployment must reflect greatest need, not geography. Every child deserves the same chance to thrive! #Education #Fairness

Reading - the passport to life. Y8 tests diagnose too late. If we want confident learners, we must invest early: EYFS & primary. Teaching transforms. Every child should leave primary school a reader. Anything less locks doors before futures begin.

There’s something incredibly exciting in the air at Ray Lodge Primary School as we step into this new academic year. Walking through classrooms, you can feel it: children who are impeccably behaved, deeply focused on their learning. 💫

Leadership isn’t about giving instructions – it’s about working alongside others to drive improvement. Proud to be shoulder-to-shoulder with our brilliant School Improvement Team at Strive4, supporting leaders so they can focus on what matters most: children, learning & community. 🌟

Today’s INSET was a reminder of why we teach: to encourage our values of Ambition, Possibility, Resilience, Integrity, Diversity & Emotional Awareness. With plans in place, we’re ready to welcome pupils back on Wednesday. #Striving4Excellence🌟📚

Refurbished EYFS classrooms create safe, stimulating, and well-resourced environments that inspire curiosity, support early learning, and lay strong foundations for children’s future education. 🌟✨⭐️

The month of August Walk, bike, or use public transport to get around this summer! Teach your children the benefits of eco-friendly travel and enjoy nature while doing it. #SustainableAugust #EcoTransport #FamilyAdventure

The School Year Ends: A Time to Relax, Refresh, and Recharge! To our pupils, families & staff, thank you for a year full of growth, resilience & joy. Wishing everyone a safe, happy & restful summer. You’ve earned it! See you in September! 🌈💛

Goodbye & good luck to our amazing Year 6s! You’ve grown into kind, confident leaders & we’re so proud. Take every lesson, every laugh, and every moment with you into your next chapter. The future is bright, and it’s yours! 🌟 #GoodLuckY6 #FutureLeaders

Staying Healthy! Encourage your child to eat a balanced diet, stay active, drink plenty of water, and get enough sleep. Healthy habits today lead to a brighter future! 🥗🏃‍♀️💧

Applications now open! www.strive4academy.co.uk/Working-with...

📢 We're recruiting! Strive4 Academy Trust is seeking passionate, skilled Trustees to help shape the future of our growing family of schools. If you believe in excellence, equity & opportunity for every child — we’d love to hear from you. www.strive4academy.co.uk

Proud beyond words of the Farnham Green team. This Ofsted report reflects what we see every day: high expectations, inclusion, joy in learning & a culture where everyone thrives. This is transformation in action. This is the power of a strong school in a strong Trust. #ProudToBeStrive4

On Sunday we celebrated World Ocean Day to reflect on the vital role our oceans play in sustaining life on Earth.

This week is Men’s Mental Health Awareness Week, an important time to talk openly about wellbeing, challenge stigma, and promote a culture where everyone feels safe to speak up and seek support. 💬💙

There’s no such thing as a private conversation. Words travel — faster and further than we think. A casual comment can land hard. Intent doesn’t erase impact. Reputation, trust, and dignity are all fragile. Free speech matters. But thoughtful speech matters more.

A big week at Strive4: Ofsted ✔️ Governing Body mtg ✔️ GDPR audit ✔️ NPQs ✔️ Teacher recruitment ✔️ Budget + staffing planning ✔️ And a vital convo with @wesstreeting on Redbridge school challenges. We don’t aim for busy — we aim for impact. 💥 #Strive4 #TrustLeadership

Valuable meeting today with Wes Streeting and Redbridge @naht.org.uk to discuss key challenges in our schools — funding, falling numbers, staffing & rising pupil needs. Grateful for the chance to speak up for our children, families & staff. Collective voice matters. 👥📚 #EducationMatters #Strive4

We’re helping pupils understand how everyday choices impact our planet—starting with single-use plastics. From reusable bottles to recycled art, our young changemakers are learning, acting, and leading the way toward a cleaner, greener future. 💚♻️ #PlasticFreeSchools #EcoEducation
