Anthem Schools Trust
Anthem started out in 2011 under the name CfBT Schools Trust with just three schools, and now serves over 8,000 children and young people across the East Midlands, London and Thames Valley. All our schools are unique, and each has something special to offer. Together, we create ambitious and successful schools where every child thrives. As a multi-academy trust, Anthem is first and foremost a school improvement organisation, responsible for ensuring that the public money we receive to run our 11 primary schools and five secondary schools is used to drive the best possible outcomes for their pupils and students. We are a company limited by guarantee and an exempt charity.
