About Our Trust

Providing excellence in education

The Salterns Academy Trust provides an excellent education for every student in each school within the trust, remaining centred in the heart of its community. The Trust operates two academies for students aged 11-16 and one for students age 5-16 in the North Island area of Portsmouth. Mayfield School, Admiral Lord Nelson School and Trafalgar School have a combined student roll of over 3500 students.

Our Vision

We will provide an excellent and inclusive educational experience that prepares our students for the world of tomorrow.

The Trust aims to deliver this vision for all young people in its schools. The Trust has identified the values which will underpin, focus and shape all the work that we do. Each year these will help us determine the strategic priorities which will drive this work forwards.
