It currently consists of three academies in the London Borough of Ealing - Twyford Church of England High School, Ealing Fields High School and William Perkin Church of England High School. The trust received permission in October 2014 to open a fourth academy named Ada Lovelace C of E High School. The trust, in partnership with the local authority, is the hub for the Ealing Teaching School Alliance (ETSA), an alliance of local schools. HistoryTwyford Church of England Academies Trust was set up in October 2011 in order to allow the diocese to use the strengths built up at Twyford CofE High School to be developed beyond a single school. The aim of the trust is to deliver outstanding educational standards in a secure Christian setting. History of Twyford C of E High SchoolTwyford C of E High School was originally set up by the London Diocesan Board for schools in 1981 and is one of a family of 13 LDBS secondary schools within the city. The school opened as the result of a concerted campaign by local parents. It was rated by Osfted in its most recent inspection as ‘Outstanding’ overall and has a considerable reputation within the diocese and the local area. The school has also grown in size during this time with a particular increase in post-16 students. There are now 944 students in years 7-11 and 511 in the 6th form. History of William Perkin C of E High SchoolThe trust opened a second school in September 2013, William Perkin Church of England High School, with its first cohort of 180 Year 7 students.[1] History of Ealing Fields High SchoolEaling Fields High School opened in September 2016 as an independent school with Lee Faith as its head teacher and 120 year 7 students. After he left the school due to health concerns, the school was adopted into the Twyford Trust family of schools in September of 2017. The school is now made up of 360 students ranging from year 7 to year 9. History of Ada Lovelace C of E High SchoolAda Lovelace Church of England High School was opened in September of 2018, originating with the first and second cohorts of students studying in the William Perkin Church of England High School building until a permanent location for the students could be build. The students will move to the permanent location as of September 2020, when the schools third cohort of students is joining. For supporting the growth of another school, William Perkin Church of England High School received a grant from the local administration. CommunityThe trust's Christian ethos encourages students to have a strong sense of community – both in relation to the school and in the area of wider social concern. All sixth from students are encouraged to undertake some form of community service either within school or in the wider community. Effective recent examples have been involvement in a soup kitchen at a local church and running language clubs at a feeder primary school.[2] There is an active chaplaincy with a full-time chaplain who orchestrates the worship life of the school. All assemblies, though taken by a range of staff, are framed by a short Christian liturgy which is led by students. Similarly there are brief daily tutor-time reflections prepared by the chaplaincy for staff to utilise using form chaplaincy representatives. Ethos and visionDriving the trust's ethos is the House system which exists in both trust schools and works vertically, grouping the whole school into seven multi-age communities. This complements and contrasts with the pastoral system which works horizontally. The house system works predominantly on the principal of student leadership, giving students at all ages opportunities to hold roles of responsibility in music, sport, or enterprise, or on year and school councils.[3] StaffThe trust is governed by a Board of Directors which is made up of local Church of England representatives, the chairs of school governing bodies, elected staff representatives, elected parent representatives and the Executive Head Teacher. Currently the Chair of the Board is Christine Peppiatt, a London Diocesan Board for Schools nominee.
