Our Trust was formed in March 2013 when White’s Wood Academy supported and sponsored what was North County Primary (now known as Mercer’s Wood Academy). From that union, the Trust started and in 2015 Castle Wood, a brand-new school came on board too. From that point onwards, we have been working hard to establish leadership structures in both the Trust and the schools, ensure that we have happy and stable staff and to develop our systems and structures so that the schools and any business functions run smoothly. We have had our fair share of challenges but we have an amazing team and a real commitment to go the extra mile for our children, families, staff and the community.

Gainsborough in Lincolnshire, where the schools are situated, is a small town that has high pockets of deprivation and needs. As a result of this, we have dedicated teams and professionals, with expert knowledge and specialisms to support the Heads. This means that they can focus their work on leading happy, effective schools, improving teaching and learning and meeting the needs of all of our children. We are an inclusive Trust and our percentages of children who have special educational needs and EHCPs are above the national figure. With the help of our dedicated inclusion team, consisting of safeguarding, SEND, attendance and healthcare experts, we make sure that our children get the very best they can.
