Ad Astra Academy Trust

Ad Astra Academy Trust is based in the North East of England and welcomes academies within a 30 mile radius of its base close to the A19/A689 junction. Ad Astra Academy Trust in 2016 encompassed 4 eclectic primary schools across the Tees Valley. Ad Astra is proud to have trustees and members who not only have the right combination of skills and experience to govern the Trust effectively but who also have a moral purpose to make a difference to the lives of children that attend schools within Ad Astra and beyond. In considering the current political and educational landscape they have also ensured that a strong and robust strategic plan underpins future development and growth. Ad Astra is a Latin phrase which means 'to the stars.' This name was chosen as it encompasses all that the Trust believes; any child or adult working within Ad Astra can be whatever they want to be with our support and direction.
