St Oswalds Trust

St Oswalds Trust

Based in Redcar & Cleveland, this newly-formed partnership consists of several academies that together form St Oswald’s Catholic Academy Trust. Included in the partnership are:

• St Peter’s Catholic Voluntary Academy
• St Gabriel’s Catholic Voluntary Primary Academy
• St Margaret Clitherow’s Catholic Voluntary Primary Academy
• St Mary’s Catholic Voluntary Primary Academy

St Oswald’s Catholic Academy Trust was the first Catholic academy in the Middlesbrough Diocese. As such, they required an entirely new brand for the Trust that oversees all the academies along with the creation of separate brands for each individual academy.

Academy Creative provided St Oswald’s Catholic Academy Trust with a wide range of design services that involved the production of new signage, stationery, prospectuses for each Academy as well as pens and pin badges for all our staff, students and governors when the Trust was launched.

Pam Hanrahan, Headteacher, St Oswald’s Catholic Academy Trust:

“ACADEMY CREATIVE PROVIDED A THOROUGH AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICE – NOTHING IS TOO MUCH TROUBLE. SOMEONE IS ALWAYS AVAILABLE AT THE END OF A PHONE AND THEY ARE ALSO WILLING TO COME ON-SITE AT THE DROP OF A HAT. I CANNOT SPEAK HIGHLY ENOUGH OF THEIR SERVICES.”

Director Mark Skirving is looking forward to forging new partnerships in the coming years:

“AS A BUSINESS, WE SEE THE EDUCATION SECTOR AS AN IMPORTANT ELEMENT OF OUR WORK. WE ARE ABLE TO OFFER A WIDE RANGE OF BESPOKE MARKETING SERVICES SPECIFIC TO SCHOOLS, FROM COMPLETE RE-BRANDS TO WEB DESIGN.

SCHOOLS ARE INCREASINGLY HAVING TO OPERATE IN PARTNERSHIPS WITH THE LOCAL COMMUNITY AND WE CAN HELP ENSURE THEY ARE PRESENTED IN A PROFESSIONAL MANNER.”
