Coppice joined Central Learning Partnership Trust on 1st June 2018, as a sponsor-led academy. It has subsequently become a key member of our Wolverhampton secondary, school-improvement partnership, alongside Heath Park and Moseley Park. Despite the date being in the middle of the external examination season, the conversion process was relatively seamless, which is testimony to the dedication and professionalism of the Coppice staff.

The commitment the school has always made, to provide every student with the opportunity for personal development, remains unchanged. What has changed however, is the means by which this is achieved. Staff no longer work in isolation, as a single entity school, but collaborate with colleagues in the other two schools, within the partnership, to seek out and share best practice.
