Working in a collaborative model, the Canterbury Hub of The Stour Academy Trust consists of Sturry CE Primary School, Hersden Village Primary School and Adisham CE Primary School. All Academies in the Trust share the same core values and ethos; raise standards and address underperformance whilst making sure that the children are at the heart of every decision. Through the effective use of Hubs, the Trust’s aim and ambition is to create a network of outstanding schools that thrive through collaboration and interaction.
