Ashley Hill Multi Academy Trust

Welcome to the Ashley Hill Multi Academy Trust

Our schools have a rich history and tradition of learning dating many centuries. Education was not considered a high priority for many poor families in the past nor was it compulsory. Many children were sent to work long hours each day and contribute towards the family income. The Christian church recognised that education was key to success and that it should be made available to all children - free of charge. This idea provided the opportunity for many young children to stop working and attend school to receive an education. The core skills of reading and writing changed many lives for the better and today we continue to offer free compulsory education for all children.
