Woodard Academies Trust is an education charity formed in 2007 to deliver an academy programme on behalf of Woodard Schools. Created by founder Nathaniel Woodard in 1848, Woodard is the largest group of independent Church of England schools in England and Wales educating approximately 30,0000 pupils a year. Woodard Academies Trust and Woodard Schools share a common ethos and vision: to inspire young people to make a difference.

Our ethos reflects our deep commitment to delivering an outstanding education to the pupils we teach. We prioritise inclusion and value individuals and excel in delivering pastoral care. Our aim is to offer pupils not only a first-class education, but also to teach them real-life skills that will provide lifelong benefits and a wide range of enrichment opportunities. We believe that our academies should enrich the communities they serve and play an active role in their development.

We believe that a good education should be a given; each child should be treated as an individual, given opportunities to flourish and the confidence and tools needed to cope with the demands and responsibilities of adult life. This culture represents an unrivalled teaching environment for you to achieve, develop and inspire.
