MARK Education Trust
MARK Education Trust is a small multi academy trust, responsible for two secondary schools in East Sussex.
Our schools are “ambitious for excellence” and aim to benefit from working in partnership; forming a community of best practice and sharing expertise to improve outcomes for children and young people.
The trust has seen its first school, Beacon Academy in Crowborough, become over-subscribed and due to its reputation for securing great outcomes for students, there are plans for further growth.
Beacon Academy (formerly Beacon Community College) converted to an Academy, Beacon Academy Community College Trust on 1 April 2012. In January 2022, Beacon Academy Community College Trust changed its name by special resolution to MARK Education Trust with a view to expanding the trust.
Uplands Academy (formerly Uplands Community College) in Wadhurst, converted to an Academy and joined MARK Education Trust on 1 September 2022.
As a trust, we are keen to remain in control of our destiny. We are enjoying a regular dialogue with (currently) local schools who are of the same opinion and who are also considering their futures. We are discerning: our vision is to grow with care so that our trust can meet the needs of and invest in our schools as well as carefully considering what capacity we can give to others.
