Currently home to seven primary schools, with some 1,800 pupils and 370 staff, the MAT is increasingly sought after as a unique and distinctive option for primary schools within Bath & Wells Diocese.

Working closely with the Board of Directors, Central Team and Academy Leaders, you will provide the leadership and strategic direction that will drive our improvement agenda.
