Welcome to the New Bridge Multi Academy Trust, a cluster of organizations based in Oldham that provides support for children and young people with additional needs. Our Trust caters to young people with an Education, Health, and Care Plan (EHCP) from ages 4 to 19, believing that they all deserve the very best provision. Our journey began in 2014 when New Bridge School converted to a MAT, enabling us to sponsor a new build school for children on the autistic continuum, Hollinwood Academy.

Since then, we have expanded by welcoming Spring Brook School, Hawthorns School, and the @everyonelearning Teaching School Alliance to our Trust. We also established the Springboard Project to offer more appropriate vocational opportunities for young people with SEND. Led by our CEO, Graham Quinn, we are dedicated to creating high-quality individual pathways for all our young people.

With over 25 years of experience in the SEN field, Graham is committed to empowering young people to contribute and participate in their communities and society as a whole. In addition to our family of schools, we offer Future Finders, a supported internship project in partnership with the Manchester College, and New Bridge Horizons, a flexible day provision for young adults aged 19 to 25. We are passionate about improving outcomes and life chances for young people with additional needs in Oldham and beyond.

Join us in our mission of learning together, learning for all, and learning for life
