The Golden Thread Alliance is a Multi Academy Trust of nine primary schools in North West Kent, each with its own unique character, history and demographics, but unified in the belief that we are all as united as we are different.

Following the 2023 merger of Galaxy Trust in Dartford and Pathway Trust in Gravesham, The Golden Thread Alliance now comprises Culverstone Green Primary School, Fleetdown Primary Academy, Meopham Community Academy, Oakfield Primary Academy, The Riverview Academy, Temple Hill Primary Academy, West Hill Primary Academy, and Wrotham Road Primary School.

All subscribe to the values of Respect, Equality, Courage, Integrity, Ambition, Kindness, and Responsibility, and we embody them through Trust policies and daily practice.

Our pledges to five protected groups in our schools ensure that nobody is left behind, in the pursuit of a level playing field for all children and their families: https://golden-thread.org/about-us/our-pledges/

We want all students, regardless of background and need, to achieve highly and have high levels of wellbeing. We recognise and celebrate our differences together, so we can provide personalised support when needed, making sure every single one of our children can fulfil their potential for greatness.

The Golden Thread Alliance offers the same unwavering support to all members of staff, providing ample opportunities for CPD, training at all levels, family days, and mental health & wellbeing support.
