Dear Parents/Carers

You may recall we were exploring options to become a Multi Academy Trust (MAT). We have been advised by the regional representative for the DfE that they are not seeking to form any new MAT’s involving special schools in Staffordshire.

We are committed to continuing to work with Western Springs and are therefore seeking to federate with them. Please find enclosed the consultation proposal and response form. We would be grateful if after reading the consultation proposal you could return the response form to school by September 10^th 2018.

Yours sincerely

Linda James

Headteacher
