Delta Academies Trust (formerly Schools Partnership Trust Academies) is a multi-academy trust, operating 46 schools. [1] As an academy trust, it is an exempt charity regulated by the Department for Education. [2]

Its current CEO is Paul Tarn. [3]

A critical report from Ofsted in early 2016 prompted reforms at Schools Partnership Trust Academies. A new CEO—Paul Tarn, formerly deputy CEO of Outwood Grange Academies Trust (OGAT)—was appointed; he was joined by a Maths and English Director who transferred to Delta shortly after the CEO took up post. [4] It went on to rebrand as "Delta Academies Trust" as of October 2016. [5]

Schools

All through

Delta operated the former Dawes Lane Academy, a 3–19 free school in Scunthorpe, before its closure in 2015. [6] The school had only opened a year previously, but encountered difficulties with pupil numbers and securing a permanent site. [7]
