The Salterns Academy Trust

Welcome to The Salterns Academy Trust.

The Trust grew from the successful ALNS school when it converted to Academy status in April 2014. In addition we became sponsors for Trafalgar School (previously City of Portsmouth Boys’ School) when it converted to Academy status in April 2015.

Our intent in making the conversion to Academy status was to help further our goal of continuing to improve the performance initially of ALNS, and now both schools within the Trust, to benefit all our students both present and future. Academy status gives us a little more flexibility to follow strategies and develop values which we believe will be of most benefit to all our students, staff and parents. In particular our core strategy is to work with all schools across Portsmouth in order to support:

Ourselves through identifying and adopting local best practice that works within Portsmouth and, to help other schools within the City.
Them with our school improvement skills.

Our intent is to deliver this strategy through the establishment of varied and appropriate working arrangements with schools that share the same ethos as ourselves.
