The Avanti Way: Reimagining the purpose of education. Our purpose is simple, yet profound: To inspire spiritually compassionate changemakers.
The idea for Avanti began in 2003 and our first school was opened in 2008. Our vision was for a family of schools based upon our core principles of educational excellence, character formation, and spiritual insight. We now have close to 5,500 students and 700 members of staff across our family of 12 schools.
Avanti exists to help each person become a well-rounded human being through intellectual, personal and spiritual growth, and so make the world a better place.
Nishkam Schools Multi-Academy Trust (NSMAT) is a high performing group of academy schools with a Sikh ethos, multi-faith, virtues-led approach to education. Trust pupil outcomes are in the top 10% nationally; schools are generally Ofsted outstanding.
There are more than 3200 students across 6 schools in the West Midlands, West London, Leeds and Derbyshire. Three nurseries also in West Midlands and Leeds.
We believe that our approach to education should be more than simply a means to acquiring factual knowledge but be founded in character growth. It engages pupils more fully to what it might be to be the highest of human virtue and engage in the question of the purpose of life and beyond. These tools enable pupils to have optimistic attitudes and behaviours in school and the social skills to become future leaders.
