Working in Partnership

Partnerships with Other Schools

Our school is part of the EKC Schools Trust.

The schools in the Trust are Bysing Wood, Queenborough, Briary, Holywell, with Palm Bay & East Stour joining in 2022 followed by The Churchill School in late 2023. Working alongside one another is enabling us to:

• Enhance the quality of teaching and learning
• Raise standards in English, Mathematics & Science
• Share good practice and embed it in our own schools
• Share expertise for staff professional development, particularly for subject leaders, in areas such as Early Years, Special Needs, Safeguarding, English, Maths, Science
• Provide enrichment activities for pupils
