We haven’t measured a rhythm for Pontefract Academies Trust in Industrial Machinery yet — so we’re not going to guess at one.
Pontefract Academies Trust was established in 2013 and involves a group of schools that have a long history of working together; all are within the WF8 postcode district.
Currently, the Trust serves 3,850 pupils, with just over 500 staff.
Our family of schools are all located in a small geographic hub within Pontefract.
The six Trust primary schools feed into the two secondary schools, and the locality-based model allows for strong alignment of provision with all schools working in close collaboration.
Since 2018, the Trust has gone through a significant improvement journey.
During 2019, six schools were inspected by Ofsted, of which five were graded Good, with one of the schools being in Special Measures less than two years earlier.
Attainment in the Trust primary schools in 2018 was 12% below the national average, whereas the improvements driven by the changes implemented by the Trust, resulted in outcomes in 2019 being 12% above the national average which ranked the Trust in the top 10% of MATs nationally.
As a result of the improvements in school performance and the centralisation of services delivered to serve the schools, the Trust is now keen to grow further, either by attracting other schools to join the Trust or by 'planting a new hub' elsewhere in the region.
In essence, this procurement is all about identifying a single MFD partner.
At the sole discretion of the Trust any future schools that the Trust may incorporate will also be added to the MFD Partner contract.
The Trust has a current estate of 23 devices - All of these are under lease agreements.
The current estate generates an indicative annual total of circa 3.1m Mono copies The current estate generates an indicative annual total of circa 3.7m Colour copies
