About Olive Academies

Olive Academies (OA) is a multi-academy trust (MAT), approved by the Department for Education. Established in 2013, it is one of the first academy sponsors specialising in alternative provision (AP) in England. We opened our first academy in Thurrock, Essex in 2015 and our second in the London Borough of Havering in 2016. Our third AP academy opened in central Suffolk in 2017. In 2021 we were joined by two academies in Cambridgeshire, located in Cambridge and Wisbech. Our academies support children and young people aged between 7 and 16 who have experienced difficulty in learning for a variety of reasons: they may be permanently excluded from a mainstream school; have complex needs that prevent them from attending school; or have been placed at one of our academies for a period of intervention work. We also offer support to pupils in mainstream schools who are at risk of exclusion. At Olive Academies we believe that every child has the ability and the right to learn and achieve. We aim to transform the lives of vulnerable young people for whom traditional teaching methods have not worked. We give our pupils their first taste of success and achievement; their first experience of what positive change can feel like. With our help and intervention, the majority of our pupils will complete their education within a mainstream school. A return to mainstream school gives our young people a clear and crucial message - that they have a place in the community and they have a valued role to play. With our core values of conviction, determination, ambition and reflection Olive Academies can transform children's lives. All of our staff at Olive Academies are valued as professionals. Our staff are relentless in their efforts to break the cycle of disadvantage for our pupils. We believe in supporting and investing in our staff to ensure that they develop as inspirational educational role models. We strive to achieve excellence through all that we do.
