Our story

Cygnus Academies Trust is a network of academies across London and the South-East of England.

Our academies, nurseries and pre-schools create environments where children not only learn, but also matter, to themselves, to their communities and to the wider world. Cygnus Academies Trust provides the exceptional education every child deserves.

Realising ambition through learning

It is our mission to realise the ambition of our students and deliver the very best education to young people across our Multi-Academy Trust.

In addition to achieving excellent academic results, Cygnus Academies Trust is deeply committed to the personal development of our young people. We are proud to be a part of and work with our communities.
