On 1st April 2022 the children, staff and governors of St Winefride’s Catholic Primary School were delighted to join the Our Lady of Grace Catholic Academy Trust. We are all looking forward to building on our strong Catholic partnership in Newham and working together, in Christ, to support the community in Manor Park.
St Winefride’s Catholic Primary School have completed a formal eight week consultation period where information was gathered from, and disseminated to, parents/carers, staff and any interested parties regarding joining the Our Lady of Grace Multi Academy Trust.
The information gained during this consultation was brought together and put into a report which the Governing Board used to make the decision whether to continue the academisation process. After considering the report, the Governing Board voted unanimously to continue with the process.
