At Heritage MAT we are proud to be a small to medium-sized trust, currently made up of six schools serving the Huddersfield area. Together we educate over 3,000 pupils, with each academy contributing its own strengths, character and sense of community while being united by our shared mission, vision and values.

When we submitted our original application to establish Heritage MAT, we set out a notional growth plan that included the addition of three further primary schools, the potential for one or two more secondary schools, and the development of an additionally resourced provision. While these remain part of our vision, any future growth is carefully considered by the Trust Board and shaped by what will best serve our pupils, families and communities.

We recognise that every school has its own unique story and set of challenges. That’s why we approach potential partnerships on a case-by-case basis, ensuring that any school joining us is aligned with our values and is ready to benefit from — and contribute to — the collective strength of the Trust.

We welcome conversations with schools who share our belief in collaboration, ambition and support. If your school is exploring the next step in its journey and would like to learn more about what it means to be part of Heritage MAT, please use the enquiry form below to arrange an informal discussion with us.
