As a Trust we offer a range of services which are delivered centrally.
These are tailored to the individual needs of partner schools. We have been working in this way for a number of years. This is not new to us. As a Trust, we will continue to monitor and review the services we offer, maintaining our commitment to being responsive to individual schools’ needs and requirements.
