Schools linked to the trust in the Governance Register school data (Get Information about Schools, extract of 24 Oct 2026). Pupils are on-roll counts from the register. Ofsted: latest inspection in the Ofsted management information (as at 30 September 2026); "No overall grade" means inspected since September 2024 without a one-word grade; what the inspection found is shown beneath, and the school's Ofsted card has the full table.

What this means

Funding
An academy is funded directly by the Department for Education, through its trust, rather than through the local council.
Admissions
The trust is the admissions authority and sets the admissions policy. Applications are usually still coordinated by the local council.
Governance
The trust board is legally accountable for the school. It often delegates some oversight to a local governing body.
