HISP Multi Academy Trust believe in building excellent educational environments that inspire and unlock potential in all our school communities. We currently have three schools within our Trust covering the age ranges from nursery to 16 with plans to expand and grow quickly across our geographical location.

We are part of the Education Endowment Foundation Network with our HISP Research School. Evidence informed practice underpins our ethos, professional development and school improvement. We have an outstanding provision for training new teachers through our Hampshire SCITT Partnership, which also supports career progression for staff within our Trust and links to higher education.
