Read the latest news from Whipman Woods and in our wider Flying High Partnership.
As performance is lauded for their Nottingham City, Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire schools, CEO of Flying High Partnership says, ‘…our children’s achievements are recognised as some of the best in the country.’
It’s back to school for school staff from Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, and Nottingham City for a massive inset training day with The Flying High Partnership; the trust making the headlines in countrywide multi-academy trust league tables.
A new primary school called Whipman Woods Flying High Academy, in Gateford, Worksop is to be sponsored by The Flying High Partnership.
The multi-academy trust was selected by the Department for Education, and supported by Nottinghamshire County Council, to run the new academy after a competitive tendering process.
The new 210 place primary free school is set to open in September 2024. It will be built on Harlequin Drive on land adjacent to Gatekeeper Way in Gateford to serve the new housing development on the northern fringes of the town. It will eventually have the capacity for 315 primary places plus a 26-place nursery to meet the needs of local families.
