Mission Statement
We are a parent led group who have formed in response to the Cognita’s announcement that the future of St Clare’s school was under threat. It is our combined mission to save the school so that it can continue to offer a safe environment and excellent education to our children and future generations.
Overview
On Tuesday 6th May 2025, Cognita UK wrote to parents informing them that due to factors outside their control, they had begun a consultation with the staff about a proposal to close the school in December 2025.
The announcment left parents reeling, some having only started with the school at the beginning of the term or academic year. The news was particularly upsetting for our Year 10 and Year 12 students, who will be left without support for GCSE and A-Level courses not due to be completed until May/June 2026.
The closure would impact almost 200 pupils as well as staff, and has already plunged the community into shock and upheaval at a time when pupils are sitting exams.
A parent group has raised a significant amount of money in a short period of time, with the intention of exploring every possible avenue to save St Clare’s.
Want to join the fight? We’d love your support!
