Academy Consultation
We are looking for your views on our proposal to become an academy and join a Multi Academy Trust called Central Learning Partnership Trust.
We believe that by working together, we will be able to further develop the supportive and inspirational education that we provide here at Sitwell Nursery & Infant School. To academise and join together is a big step, but one that we believe will strengthen the foundations for continued exceptional education in the future.
We hope this consultation page will provide you with the information you need to understand our proposal. We want this process to be the best it can be for our children and the wider community, so please do give us any feedback you have about things you think we should consider and areas we can improve.
Thank you for taking the time to engage in the consultation period.
Consultation Timetable
The consultation period runs from Thursday 16th October to Thursday 13th November 2025.
What Parents & Carers Need to Know
You often have many questions when something is new and may change. We have prepared a variety of different information for you which will hopefully help to share what is involved in becoming an academy, and what it means for parents/carers and children. Copies of key communications, along with some detailed frequently asked questions are attached below.
In-person Meetings
Across the consultation period, we will be holding a series of in-person meetings for parents and the community to attend. Meetings will be held with staff, parents, trade unions, the school community and pupils. Dates will be shared as soon as they are finalised
