Our Schools

The Trust was set up by Ripley St Thomas Church of England Academy in 2017. Ripley is a large Academy with over 1700 students, 400 of whom are in the Sixth Form. The Academy has been graded “Outstanding” in its last two Ofsted inspections. Ripley has its own SCITT (School Centred Initial Teaching Training), which was also graded “Outstanding” in 2017 and again in 2023.

In 2018 we were delighted to welcome Carnforth High School into our Trust family,  Morecambe Bay Academy and Central Lancaster High School in 2019, followed by Longridge High School in 2023. In February 2024, The Bay Learning Trust further expanded in February 2024, by welcoming Barnacre Road Primary School into the Trust family.
