In January 2014 we became a Multi-Academy Trust called Hatton Academies Trust; our aim is to build a family of academies in Wellingborough working together to provide the highest standards of primary and secondary education to our children. We are dedicated to sustaining our position as a centre of academic excellence from 3-18 years of age, for the benefit of all our children. We are very proud to sponsor Victoria Primary Academy and Oakway Academy; two mulit-cultural primary schools in the heart of our community and Ecton Village Primary serving a local rural community.
Our Academies are exceptional places to study and work. We have a proud history of educating young people from Wellingborough. Our mission is to develop the potential of all students, both in the classroom and outside by “aiming for excellence in all that we do” and encouraging students and staff to do the same.
