Amplify Education: A Bold New Voice for Bristol 

Amplify is the result of a merger between two highly respected organisations, Trust in Learning Academies (TiLA) and Cathedral Schools Trust (CST). Following formal approval from the Department for Education (DfE) and a period of thorough due diligence, both Boards carefully reviewed a detailed merger business case and unanimously agreed to proceed. By bringing together the complementary strengths, expertise, and shared values of TiLA and CST, Amplify marks an exciting new chapter, creating a collaborative organisation committed to excellence, inclusion, and innovation in education for our schools and communities.

Together, Amplify will be the largest Bristol-based multi-academy trust, serving approximately 12,000 pupils across 21 schools and covering diverse communities and geographies. 

Ambitious. Reflective. Collaborative. That's us. 

Our Vision 

Amplify will be committed to transforming education in Bristol through four guiding principles: 

  • A Bold Voice for Bristol: Speaking with ambition and channelling the city’s spirit into a shared journey of belief, opportunity, and citizenship. 

  • Building Belief: Ensuring every young person’s voice is heard, every story matters, and every learner moves forward with confidence. 

  • Expanding Opportunities: Nurturing potential and enriching each learner’s journey with a passport of inclusive, academic, creative, and musical experiences. 

  • Strengthening Citizenship: Connecting communities and educating to build unity and pride—this is Bristol, represented.
