Welcome from Chrysta Garnett, CEO

The Quantock Education Trust (QET) is a mixed MAT of eight unique schools in Somerset: Stogursey CoE Primary School, Spaxton CE Primary School, St Bartholomew's CofE Primary School, Haselbury Plucknett CofE Primary School, Merriott Primary school, Ashlands C of E Primary School, Haygrove School and Sexey's School.  At QET we value and celebrate the diversity and distinctiveness of our schools, given the different age range from early years to sixth form; church and non-church status which also includes state boarding provision.

We are united by our joint vision and values which prioritise the life opportunities for all our children, their achievements, wellbeing and character.  Close relationships, a focus on standards, and meaningful collaboration provide our member schools with a tangible sense of belonging, where mutual support and high expectations helps us to maintain a 'family' and 'one team' culture.  We are proud of our children and staff, their achievements and commitment, which we seek to celebrate at every opportunity.

It is a real privilege to hold the position of CEO of the Quantock Education Trust.  My mission is to keep children and QET's core charitable purpose at the heart of everything we do, to 'advance education for the public benefit - to make children and young people's lives better'.

Yours sincerely,

Ms Chrysta Garnett
CEO of the Quantock Education Trust
