Welcome to the Poppy Academy Trust. 

I am very proud of our trust and the community we serve.  High quality education is at the forefront of all our decision making and our children are inquisitive, resilient and ambitious learners.  They leave our schools with a passion for knowledge and as well-rounded members of their local community. 

Our staff and governors are equally passionate about our schools and work tirelessly to ensure the best opportunities are provided for the children.  Our schools have their own unique sense of self with both our St John’s being Church schools and maintaining close links with the Dioceses of St Albans and the local Churches in the community.  And Fair Field establishing itself as a leading school for sports and community projects.
