About Trinity Academy

Trinity Academy’s parent community sends a mixed but largely positive signal. In the most recent Parent View survey, covering September 2024 to September 2025, 68% of the 158 respondents said they would recommend the school to other parents. That’s a solid majority, though it leaves nearly a third who would not. The school is clearly popular at the admissions gate: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 545 applications for 255 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2.14, with 239 first-preference offers made. On specific questions, 76% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy, and 80% felt their child is safe. However, the picture is more nuanced on SEND support — only 44% of parents agreed that children with special educational needs get the help they require, while 47% disagreed. Similarly, 36% disagreed that concerns are dealt with properly, though 51% agreed. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection, in November 2024, rated it Good across all areas, including behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and leadership. This was a clear improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating in 2022.
