We are a MAT formed of large primary schools with over 1300 children and 200 staff. We work closely with our cluster and borough schools to constantly reflect and share best practice. We are passionate about education and know by investing in our early career teachers and developing leaders at all levels to achieve best outcomes as a part of the DfE golden thread model, we have an opportunity to transform education in the future.
