The Olympus Academy Trust

The Olympus Academy Trust is a multi-academy trust which was established at the start of 2012 to support local schools wanting to develop shared approaches to school improvement. Situated within the districts of Bradley Stoke, Filton, Patchway and surrounding areas the Trust currently comprises seven South Gloucestershire schools; one all-through, one secondary and five primary academies. The Trust aims to look after business and non-education functions so that schools can focus on learner outcomes and the well-being of their school community. Olympus and its schools are state-funded and the Trust is directly accountable to the Education Funding Agency and the Department for Education. The Trust has a Board of Directors which oversees and monitors the work of the Trust's schools via its Executive Leadership team and the school's local governing bodies
