As a brand new Academy, Purple Oaks opened in Kingsthorpe, Northampton, sponsored by the Greenwood Academies Trust (GAT). A major capital building programme costing £5m was secured to provide a state of the art building and facilities for students and staff. The new building was completed in December 2017 and the academy moved in on the 3rd January 2018.
Thanks to the outstanding teams across our @GreenwoodAcad family working hard behind the scenes and ready to welcome pupils back to school. An incredible amount of work gone on to ensure everyone safe and ready to get back to learning.
