The core purpose of the Trust is to develop the very best organisations to ensure that children do exceptionally well and are prepared for the future. We will build our community of up to six schools, who will use each other as a resource to:

• Develop teaching

• Create opportunities for leadership and develop the best leaders

• Develop the curriculum

The Trust provides a tiered level of service tailored to the needs of each school, recognising where each school is on its journey to outstanding. 

At the heart of the Trust is the Teaching School and the resources that it brings. The teaching school works with individual schools at the level required for each school, using the resources of both the teaching school and the other schools within the Trust. 

By using the teaching school’s experiences, expertise from outside the Trust and the many strengths within the academies, we will create a strong, self-improving organisation within the primary sector.

There are currently six academies/schools in the Trust - Avenue Primary Academy, Sutton, Kingsley Primary Academy, Croydon, Rushy Meadow Primary Academy, Sutton, Stanley Park Infants School, Sutton, Wallington Primary Academy, Sutton and Barrow Hedges Primary School, Sutton.
