History

In September 2010, Holywells High School become an academy, originally ran by the Learning Schools Trust, and was renamed Ipswich Academy.[1] In September 2015, Paradigm Trust - a multi-academy trust formed in September 2013 - took over operation of the academy.[2]

Paradigm Trust was formed with a very simple ethos: it is that every child is entitled to an outstanding education, with equal access to knowledge, skills, opportunities, aspirations, life chances and dignity.[3]

It aims to provide this in many ways to every child at the schools in the Trust; leading with a well-planned and taught curriculum, in an environment where the safety and well-being of pupils are paramount.

gollark: Wow, I really love having to use `grep` to find an option in `--help`!
gollark: Yes.
gollark: Anyway², I'll switch over my backup stuff and use the existing incremental tar thing for smallish compressible directories and rsync for large-scale apiary data.
