About The Gallery Trust
The Gallery Trust is a Special Multi Academy Trust which is dedicated to improving outcomes for SEND learners in Oxfordshire. We strive to provide the best possible specialist learning experience for all pupils.
- Places where innovation drives learning – our schools have a clear purpose, they educate the whole child and prepare them for adulthood. Everything we do, from our curriculum offer to our pastoral care, is meaningful and driven by the needs of learners.
- Places where relationships drive engagement and achievement – our schools are built around exceptional relationships. We provide excellent experiences, growth, and opportunities for pupils and staff, and specialist working environments and resources.
- Places which provide exceptional knowledge and support – our schools are supported by a skilled and experienced central team which provides high quality school improvement and central support services.
- Places which inspire and influence – our schools are committed to collaborating with our local and national partners and communities to ensure that children and young people with SEND receive the education and opportunities they deserve.
As we enter the next phase of our development and build on our many successes, we want to embrace future challenges and opportunities. The Trust is on a continuing journey of expansion, growing from a Multi Academy Trust based on a single academy in 2013, to its position as the largest Special Trust in Oxfordshire.
There are currently seven special academies in the Trust located throughout Oxfordshire, with an additional academy scheduled to open in January 2026. The Trust’s vision is to continue to expand over the next five years, supporting a community of converter academies, free schools and sponsored academies, and providing outreach services, teacher training and extended schools provision. All academies collaborate to share SEND expertise and best practice, and work in partnership with peers who are committed to common aims and goals.
The schools in the Trust are:
● Iffley Academy, Oxford, provision for 180 students with moderate Cognition and Learning Needs and associated SEMH and ASC needs (5 -18)
● Bardwell School, Bicester, provision for 110 students with PMLD, SLD and moderate Cognition and Learning Needs (2 - 19)
● Mabel Prichard School, Oxford, provision for 110 students with PMLD, SLD and moderate Cognition and Learning Needs (2 – 19)
● Springfield School, Witney, provision for 110 students with PMLD, SLD and moderate Cognition and Learning Needs (2 – 19)

● A new free special school in Faringdon, Artemis Academy, will open in January 2027 and will make provision for students with SEMH, ASC and Cognition and Learning Needs
