On January 2023, our School became an Academy as part of the Oak Trees Multi-Acadmey Trust (MAT). The Trust is led by a strong Trustees Board who are accountable for Trust-wide performance and compliance, with each school having a Local Governing Committee, charged with being the eyes and ears of the local community for each school. 

In the Academy area of our website are a number of statutory documents required for our conversion and further information about Oak Trees academies, policies and Governance are available on the Oak Trees website
