Our Family

We’re a multi-academy trust with primary and secondary academies and sixth forms across Nottingham City, Derby City and Derbyshire. We provide an excellent education to children from the age of four right up to completing their A-Levels at age 18. We also have a teacher training programme for those looking to enter the world of teaching – Bluecoat SCITT Alliance.

We’re the largest multi-academy trust in Nottingham, educating one-third of the city’s children and young people. We have ambitious plans for growth so we can ensure a bright future for even more students and communities.

Our students come from a wide variety of backgrounds, families and faiths (including no faith), and we welcome everyone. Our academies serve students from some of the most deprived areas of Nottingham and Derbyshire. We recognise that every child has a different startng point and work tirelessly to ensure all our academies are inclusive places where our students get the necessary support and understanding and where they feel they belong.
