The Trust has been approached by the Department for Education to become the long term sponsor for Driffield School and Sixth Form from September 2016. Driffield has previously been a good school but has recently experienced some difficulties leading to it being placed into Special Measures following an Ofsted visit in March. We have worked with a number of schools who have been in similar circumstances and these partnerships have been of mutual benefit to all schools and have strengthened our links within the East Riding of Yorkshire.
We are committed to ensuring that South Hunsley, Malet Lambert and Hunsley Primary Schools continue to be led by the strong Senior Leadership Teams and as such, students and parents should see no day-to-day operational changes in any existing schools as our
partnership with Driffield School and Sixth Form develops.
