Buckminster Primary School Joins MET!

We are delighted to announce that Buckminster Primary School officially joined our Trust on November 1st!

We had a wonderful morning celebrating their conversion; Year 5 & 6 children enjoyed giving tours and showing us their favourite features of the school, and Julia Orridge, Headteacher at Buckminster Primary School, also co-ordinated virtual meetings for children from across the Trust to introduce themselves!

‘We are really pleased to officially join the Mowbray Education Trust. The school has been on an incredible journey over the last year and are looking forward to continually developing the quality of education with the support and guidance of the family of schools within the MET.’ Julia Orridge

‘Thank you to everyone who attended. We had a lovely morning welcoming members of the community to the Trust. We look forward to the continued collaborative support and development between school and Trust teams.’ Carl Elder, Interim Chief Executive Officer

‘Despite the school’s challenging recent past, through the leadership of the new Headteacher, Julia Orridge, with support from Ian Toon and the wider Trust team, this is a school which the community can be proud of.’ Drew Richardson-Walsh, Vice Chair
