May 1, 2026 | News

On 1st May 2026, we were proud to formally welcome Bexhill Academy to the Mulberry Schools Trust family.

Mulberry Academy Bexhill is the sixth East Sussex school to join Mulberry Schools Trust this year, and we look forward to strengthening our partnerships with our East Sussex communities.

Over the past three years, we have worked with the school on its improvement journey. This next stage reflects our shared commitment to providing high-quality education and expanding opportunities for young people within the local community.

Alongside its strong local identity, Mulberry Academy Bexhill shares in our ambition to ensure every child can succeed, whatever their background or circumstances. By working together within the Mulberry Schools Trust, all our schools benefit from collaborative leadership, shared professional expertise and the wider opportunities created through Trust partnerships and programmes.

Alice Ward, Interim CEO of Mulberry Schools Trust, said:

We are delighted to welcome Mulberry Academy Bexhill into the Mulberry Schools Trust family. This is a significant and exciting moment for our Trust as we extend our work beyond London into East Sussex. We do so with great respect for the school’s history, its identity and the community it serves.

We look forward to working closely with staff, students, families and governors at the Academy, and to learning from one another as part of a strong, collaborative and values-driven family of schools.
