Invictus Education Trust was created in March 2015 by a group of like-minded schools: Crestwood, Ellowes Hall Sports College, Kinver High and Wombourne High School. Three schools have since joined us, Leasowes High School in 2016, Pedmore High School in 2018 and Rufford Primary School in 2021 further strengthening an already thriving trust.


Where we differ from other multi-academy trusts is our intention to collaborate across our schools, in every aspect.

Our collaboration starts with our culture, our culture is collectively known as the ‘Student First Culture’, all elements are centred around providing the best for our students, we recruit staff that are driven to put students first.


Invictus Vision Statement

We provide our communities with an excellent education, unique opportunities, and elite experiences. Our students love attending school and our team are proud to represent their school and Trust.

Invictus Mission Statement

Whatever their starting point, our students make positive progress, with a perfect mix of academic challenge, pastoral care, and enriching experiences.
