Key Information
We operate a "small schools" model - one school made

up of a number of smaller learning communities, which

we call Colleges, each with their own staff and facilities.

Each College is led by its own Headteacher (who is an

Assistant Principal) and has its own team of

approximately 25 teachers and non-teachers, covering

most curriculum areas. Students join one of the Colleges

in Year 7 and remain there for five years before

transferring to College VI, our specialist post-16

provision. In addition, the Creative and Performing Arts

(CPA) College delivers specialist education to students

across the Collegiate in Art, Drama, Design Technology,

Media, Music and Physical Education whilst the MacKay

College co-ordinates inclusion services to students with

additional needs. Small teams, working with just 400

students each, allow us to provide even better pastoral care to all students, as well as engage with learners

and their families in more effective partnerships. They also provide teaching across the curriculum and

learning teams focusing on personalised approaches and best serving the needs of the individual students in

their care.

Information about _The Collegiate Trust
- **Our Trust works in the Crawley and Croydon areas with a clear vision to deliver _exceptional education for all_.

Such an education achieves excellent outcomes in pupil progress and attainment, a rich creative, cultural

and physical learning experience, and great personal and social development for all pupils. We achieve this

by working with and developing strong teams of staff in each school, under the direction of the Principal of

the school and the _Local Governing Body_ (LGB)

The Trust has grown out of _Riddlesdown Collegiate_, an
outstanding (OFSTED, May 2016) secondary school

in Croydon with almost 2000 students and over 200 staff. _Gossops Green_, in Crawley, was the next school
- and the first primary - to join the Trust, followed by _Waterfield Primary_ (also in Crawley) on 1st March 2018.

A second secondary, _The Quest Academy _(in Croydon), joined on 1st June 2018 and two further primaries,
