ELEMENTS DIOCESAN LEARNING TRUST
On 1 September 2026, the Diocese of Worcester Multi Academy Trust (DoWMAT) merged with Elements Diocesan Learning Trust to form a single organisation: Elements Diocesan Learning Trust.
As a result, references on this website to DoWMAT relate to the Trust's former name. During this transition period, some documents, policies and website content may continue to display DoWMAT branding while they are reviewed and updated.
The merger has created a larger family of schools, with five additional schools joining the Trust. This brings new opportunities for collaboration, shared expertise and school improvement, while allowing each school to retain its unique identity and place within its local community. Our school partners are - Broadheath CE Primary School, Callow End CE Primary School, Castlemorton CE Primary School, Christchurch CE Primary School, Church of the Ascension CE Primary School, Crowle CE Primary School, Jessons CE Primary School, Madresfield CE Primary School, Malvern Parish CE Primary School, Martley CE Primary School, Netherton CE Primary School, Pedmore CE Primary School, Pinvin Academy, Powick CE Primary School, Rushwick CE Primary School, St Barnabus First and Middle School, St Mary's CE Primary School, St Oswald's CE Primary School, The Littletons CE First School.
Our school continues to benefit from the support and opportunities of being part of the Trust, whose vision is "Flourishing together, in the love of God," underpinned by the values of Love, Learning and Service, lived out through Collaboration, Honesty and Hope.
Maggie Spence is the Director of Education for the Trust and supports academy leaders in ensuring all pupils receive a high standard of education. Maggie is a trained coach and an Ofsted inspector. Maggie is our School Improvement Advisor. Our school works very closely with her and we receive at least six school improvement visits throughout the year.
The Trust website is currently being updated to reflect the merger and new branding. During this transition period, Trust-wide policies and key information can be accessed via the current Trust website. Policies, branding and website content will be harmonised and updated over time across all schools and Trust platforms.
We appreciate your understanding as we update our materials to reflect our new name and identity: Elements Diocesan Learning Trust.
