Wellspring Why Join Us?

Join Wellspring

We welcome conversations with like-minded schools who may be interested in joining our Wellspring family. Please contact Natalie Hardman, Chief Administration Officer at n.hardman@wellspringacademies.org.uk if you would like a chat. 

We work wholeheartedly to ensure the very best for our young people, our staff team and our communities. Our values, ethics and aims are much more than mere statements; they guide the way in which we work and unite us.

Our school Principals and Governing Bodies enjoy the freedom to lead with confidence, ambition and imagination. Our support is tailored and solutions-focused.  

We encourage those thinking of joining our community to talk to our Principals. You don’t have to arrange this via us, please feel comfortable to contact them directly.
