Website and print for Heart Academies Trust

When one of our existing clients, Bedford Academy approached us to help with the early stages of a newly formed multi-academy trust, we were excited to be involved.

Consider

With this in mind, the Trust was named ‘HEART Academies Trust’.

Create 

We began with the branding process; feeding from the Trust’s vision and key values - High Expectations Achievement Respect Trust (HEART) - a simple yet bold brand was created using a stylised heart symbol formed by blocks to represent a joining together of the schools. The colour choice was made with all the schools in mind, so each retains their individual, existing identities.

We designed an 8 page brochure to outline the Trust’s ethos, providing details about member schools and their forward plans; we followed this with the development of the Trust’s website. 

Communicate

Adopting a commitment to positive collaboration allows each academy within the Trust to celebrate what they already do well and ensure continued development and improvement within the Trust. Concept4’s sector expertise and range of creative marketing services means we’re well placed to assist with this type of collaborative approach when new MATs are formed.
