Academy Consultation

At Hoole Church of England Primary School, we are always looking at how we can develop our school so that we continue to provide the very best learning opportunities for all our children. Our aim is to maintain all the good and great things that we do, improve where necessary and continue to strive for excellence.

Following consideration, our Governors decided that they would like to explore academy status further and recently we have been working with Chester Diocese to explore the possibility of creating an academy trust in partnership with the Diocese and other local church schools. The Diocese of Chester already run a successful Multi Academy Trust, Chester Diocesan Academies Trust (CDAT) who runs 18 schools in Cheshire, The Wirral and Stockport and Tameside.

You can find more information about CDAT here: https://www.cdat.co.uk/

The consultation period will commence on Monday January 20th 2025 and will include a Parents and Community Question and Answer session at school on 29th January at 6pm which will include a presentation from school leaders. If you are unable to attend the meeting, but still have a question please email [email protected].

The period for all comments to be considered and received will end on Friday 21st February. All of the questions and responses will be published on the Trust and School Websites after this date.

If you intend to come to the meeting on 29th January at 6pm, please register your attendance with the school Administration team by telephoning 01244 323890, emailing [email protected] or speaking to them directly.
