Welcome

Willow Tree Academy is a small but ambitious Multi Academy Trust based in Rotherham, South Yorkshire. We are currently made up of four primary schools and one additional provision centre, all working in close partnership to provide the highest standards of education and care for our pupils. Although modest in size, our vision is bold. Our mission is to enable every member of our community to be the very best they can be. This core belief is reflected in every aspect of our work - from the way we teach and lead, to the way we support and develop each other. We believe that every child, regardless of background, deserves access to a rich, knowledge-based curriculum and high-quality teaching every day. Our schools focus on delivering ambitious learning, nurturing strong personal development, and building emotional resilience. Our Behaviour and Inclusion team works closely with staff to ensure every child feels safe, valued, and supported. Staff development is a central pillar of our Trust. We offer high-quality CPD, coaching, and leadership programmes for colleagues at every career stage. We invest in our people because we know that confident, well-supported staff make the greatest difference to children’s lives. Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do. Our schools share ideas, solve problems together, and drive improvement through a strong culture of openness and mutual support. Our additional provision centre also plays a key role, offering tailored support for children with more complex needs. At Willow Tree Academy, we want every child to leave us confident, well-prepared, and proud of who they are. We are a Trust where ambition is nurtured, potential is realised, and success is shared - and we’re excited for what the future holds.
