We are part of the Astrum Multi Academy Trust with  two school sites, which are within one mile of each other.

Gresham Drive -Lower School  is for pupils in Early Years Foundation Stage, Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2.

and

Barley Lane Upper School  for students in Key Stage 3, Key Stage 4 and 16-19.

Pupils transfer from Gresham Drive to Barley Lane Campus at the end of Key Stage 2 and are supported to do this through a well-planned transition programme.

We also manage two  special educational needs services, which provide support and advice throughout the London Borough of Redbridge.

We hope you enjoy looking at the website, please feel free to contact us if you would like to find out more about our work or request paper copies of some of the information.
