Who is Invictus Education Trust?

The Trust comprises of six secondary schools and one primary school in the West Midlands/South Staffordshire areas and was created in March 2015 by a group of like-minded schools:

· Crestwood School - Kingswinford, Dudley

· Ellowes Hall Sports College - Lower Gornal, Dudley

· Kinver High School - Kinver, South Staffordshire

· Leasowes High School - Halesowen, West Midlands

· Wombourne High School - Wombourne, South Staffordshire

· Pedmore High School - Stourbridge, West Midlands

· Rufford Primary School and Nursery - Stourbridge, West Midlands

Crestwood, Ellowes, Kinver and Wombourne were the original founding schools and converted to Academy status in March 2015. Leasowes High School joined the Trust in December 2016 and Pedmore High School joined in September 2018 further strengthening an already thriving Trust.  In September 2021 Rufford Primary School and Nursery became the first primary school to join the Trust.

In addition to the high quality secondary and primary education provided to our students, the Trust also provides further education and pathways to a life-long career, or higher education through the Invictus Sixth Form, offering a full range of high-quality academic courses, all taught by well-qualified, experienced, full-time staff, who are an invaluable link between education and industry and help students to achieve their ambitions.

Why teach at an Invictus School?

As well as aiming for outstanding academic success, we are trying to provide the richest possible set of experiences for our students.  Partly inspired by the Public School system, we know that the fields of sport, culture, performing arts and cadets provision, will give our students the opportunity to gain in maturity and confidence.  The hope is that students will be well-rounded individuals who will have enjoyed their journey with us.
