REAch2 is a large organisation with 58 Primary schools across many parts of England. To effectively provide high quality support to all REAch2 schools a regional model has been adopted.
Our school is in CLUSTER 4 along with the following schools:
Green Ridge Primary Academy (Aylesbury)
Garden City Primary Academy (Letchworth)
Pemberley Primary Academy (Harlow)

We work closely with our linked infants’ school, Strathmore Infant and Nursery School, to make the transition between the two schools as smooth as possible.
