Welcome to

Batley Multi Academy Trust

The Trust at the heart of the Batley community

Helping each other because community makes us.


This week our family of schools have continued to support the Great Winter Get Together campaign to tackle loneliness. The Jo Cox Foundation launched their winter campaign on Monday 17th January (the notorious Blue Monday!) and it has featured on local and national news, with people everywhere reaching out to help others, so no one needs to feel lonely, isolated or alone.

Our schools have raised awareness of this key issue through assemblies and tutor time activities, and one of our schools released a recording of a “Tip of the Day” every weekday for the whole two weeks of the campaign. Staff and students alike shared their top tips for tackling loneliness and ways to help support other people. Well done to the staff and students at Upper Batley High School. The school prides itself on being one big family where everyone helps each other to share the good times and celebrate success, and also to support each other through any tough times.
