STAFF and the governing body from Callington Community College attended the launch of WeST – the Westcountry Schools Trust.

The trust, of which Callington is a member, encompasses 12 schools from East Cornwall to Plymouth and the South Hams.

Opening speaker at the launch event was national schools commissioner Sir David Carter, who urged the trust to aspire to be ‘even greater than the sum of its parts’ and to aim high for all its pupils.
