Academy Consultation
Welcome to the North Huddersfield Trust School academy consultation webpage. This page has been set up to provide important information regarding the proposal for our school to become an academy and join a proposed new Multi Academy Trust to be known as Industrious Education Trust (IET) (subject to DfE approval).
Our primary focus at this time is to ensure that all stakeholders understand our proposals and have ample opportunity to seek clarification and provide feedback.
The stakeholder consultation period is now live and will run from 14 October to 15 November 2024 inclusive and will involve parents/carers, staff, pupils, partners and the wider community in discussions regarding the proposal for North Huddersfield Trust School to convert to academy status and join IET.

What parents and carers need to know
You often have many questions when something is new and may change. We have prepared a variety of different information for you which will hopefully help to share what is involved in becoming an academy and what it means for parents/carers and pupils. A copy of an invitation to a meeting is enclosed along with some detailed frequently asked questions.
We will also keep this section up to date during the consultation period including uploading copies of any presentations and further questions and answers that arise.
