Why become part of the Aquinas journey?

Striving towards life in all its fullness, Aquinas comprises a distinctive and diverse community of academies with a shared purpose and ethos.   We are committed to mutual support and respect in pursuit of educational excellence for children and young people, educating the whole person so that all flourish. 

Whilst we are one Trust with one mission, each academy maintains its own unique characteristics and individual identity within the community it is privileged to serve.

Our mission is to ensure the life chances and educational achievements of all children and young people in our academies are positively transformed because they are part of our Trust.

This vision is at the forefront of everything we do and we are ready to grow. 

We currently have 9 Church of England academies in the Bromley hub and 2 Community academies in the East Sussex hub and are looking to expand within South London, Kent and East Sussex.  We welcome discussions with multi academy trusts looking to merge, secondary or primary schools and academies - church or community.  Interested in joining us or simply knowing more?  Please get in touch by contacting This email address is being protected from spambots.
