Kingsbridge Educational Trust (KET) comprises of strong performing, like-minded schools who are dedicated to high standards of achievement for all students.

Each school has a unique ethos and identity and maximum devolution of decision-making, within a strong accountability structure. The Trust promotes a clear educational vision, ethos and direction and ensures the uniqueness of each Academy. The contribution each school makes to the Trust is recognised and valued.

Kingsbridge Educational Trust was formed in September 2016 by the joining together of two schools, Oakgrove Secondary and Middleton Primary. Prior to this, the two schools had a long history of working together and, in September 2014, had formed an ‘umbrella’ trust to oversee the development of Primary and Nursery provision at Oakgrove.

On 1 July 2017, Monkston Primary formally joined and in August 2017, the new all-through school at Kents Hill Park was awarded to the Trust, which opened in September 2018. Kingsbridge then welcomed Hockliffe Lower School into the Trust in January 2024 and Fulbrook extended secondary school in September 2024. In the same month, Kingsbridge opened Willow Grove Primary School in Wixams, Bedford.

Whatever role or level, the Kingsbridge Educational Trust is committed to supporting staff in their professional development and offer a wide range of benefits.
