Welcome

Welcome to the Wren Academy Trust Gavin Smith Enfield

The Trust is made up of three high performing academies working collaboratively to provide the very best education for children aged 3-18 across the Lomdon boroughs of Barnet and Enfield. Each academy aims to achieve the very best academic outcomes within a caring and supportive community

The three Trust schools are:

St Mary’s and St John’s CE School (SMSJ): an all through school of over 1600 children stretching from the nursery through to a successful Sixth Form

Wren Academy Enfield: a secondary free school which opened to a first cohort of Year 7 students in September 2020 and will continue to grow each year until it has over 1200 secondary students and an academic Sixth Form.

Wren Academy Finchley: an all through school with over 1400 children aged between four and 18, with a high performing Sixth Form.

The Trust is proud of its successes with the oversubscribed academies achieving excellent Key Stage 2, GCSE and A Level results with impressive GCSE Progress 8 and A Level progress outcomes.   

Whilst our high-quality lessons, academic curriculum and extensive enrichment programme makes the academies rewarding places to learn or work in, perhaps the most notable aspect of our Trust is the quality of the relationships you will find within them.  Students and pupils like and respect each other and value their opportunities to learn in academies with clear Christian visions.  They get on exceptionally well with staff, as adults and students work together in a productive and trusting atmosphere which enables our communities to flourish.  Children thrive by being given a high degree of responsibility and this leads to exceptional behaviour and a commitment to contribute positively to our local communities and the wider world.  Student leadership is at the heart of our philosophy with children being given the opportunity to contribute to the continued development of their school.  They are given unequalled opportunities to learn, to encounter positive life experiences and to excel.  Underpinning all that we do is a clear vision which is based on widely recognised moral and social values and informs all aspects of our work.  We have built communities which provide an education that enables all young people to excel and make a difference.  Our aim is that they make excellent progress in all areas of their life and reach their full academic and social potential within caring and supportive learning communities.
