Hinckley Academy joins The Futures Trust

Hinckley Academy and John Cleveland Sixth Form College became part The Futures Trust on 1st December.

It's a multi academy trust that has a track record of building good and outstanding schools in Coventry. 

The Futures Trust says it's committed to building brighter futures for all its students and the communities it serves and is looking forward to making a real difference in Hinckley.

The academy’s move to The Futures Trust has been brokered with additional Department of Education capital funding to support remodelling and improvements of the site at Hinckley Academy. 

In addition to these improvements, the trust has also secured a DfE commitment to the provision of a brand-new classroom block providing 3220m² of state of the art teaching space.

Peter Thomas, CEO of The Futures Trust commented, “I am delighted that Hinckley Academy and John Cleveland Sixth Form College is joining our family of schools. My own children attended the school, and I am very familiar with the local community together with its needs and expectations.”

Dr Luke Evans, Member of Parliament for Bosworth, added “This is a huge step for the future of Hinckley Academy, and more importantly for the generations of children who will benefit from both the leadership of The Futures Trust, but also from the significant investment that is being made in the fabric of the school which will see state of the art facilities being built.

“This is wonderful news for Hinckley residents, I’m delighted to have played a role in bringing this day to reality and can’t wait to see how the school develops under the guidance of the The Futures Trust in the coming years.”
