Kenilworth MAT- Survey of Parents & Stakeholders

The Westwood Academy |Where Better Never Stops

About Kenilworth MAT

As a Multi-Academy Trust, we have an opportunity to build a new community of philanthropic givers keen to support our future development plans. Building on our existing digital learning plan our vision is to make Westwood a focus of STEM-based learning and a frontier school in terms of an innovative AI framework. Alongside these academic and vocational ambitions, we also want to invest in sports facilities that support new learners and talented athletes. Our vision is to combine these different priorities into a three year development plan, funded by transformative philanthropic investment. At this stage, broad figures suggest that we will need to raise as much as £2.5m to deliver high impact outcomes in these three key areas.

So that we can plan for future projects, we would first like to explore ideas with key stakeholders and the appetite for philanthropic giving. We would appreciate your views about our strategic objectives and plans to provide first-rate learning opportunities for pupils. To help us with this task, we have engaged the services of fundraising consultants, Gifted Philanthropy. We would therefore be very grateful indeed if you were happy to give us a little bit of your time to share your confidential opinions on these plans, by agreeing to take part in this short survey. Thank you so much.
