PACT Educational Trust

PACT schools have rapidly established themselves as a place where boys and girls can become the best version of themselves.

Starting with a nursery and primary school (Oakwood School) back in 1993, we wanted to operate an independent school that would assist the parents in their task as primary educators of their children. Back then we pioneered the personalised tutorial system in the UK. Aiming to develop the student’s character alongside academic excellence, parents soon witnessed the impact of this holistic approach on their children. Our education is underpinned by the Catholic faith and the educational vision of Saint Josemaria.

In 2013 we started our single-sex senior schools (The Cedars School for boys and The Laurels School for girls) that became rapidly successful. So much so that we had to look for new locations with adequate and larger facilities. This search came to fruition in 2020, and we have committed ourselves to an ambitious investment plan in the estate to support the growth of our schools.

As a result of this our schools have moved to new locations in September 2021, after extensive refurbishment and addition of these new facilities. All of the three schools are now close to each other, allowing families to consider a throughfare education for their sons and daughters.

We are extremely grateful for the commitment of the founders, the dedication of our Heads, the professionalism of our teachers, the support of our staff, and first and foremost the trust of our parents.

It is a great honour to serve this community. It is a profound joy to witness the transformation in the hearts and spirits of many talented students who become young men and women of virtue and integrity.
