About this company

Kennet School Academies Trust is the academy trust registered to run Kennet School, a secondary school and sixth form in Thatcham, Berkshire, offering GCSE, A Level and T Level provision alongside co-curricular activities such as sport, music and drama. Company records show its Standard Industrial Classification as primary and general secondary education. Evidence from the school's own website indicates the trust now operates as Equinox Learning Trust, with a Local Governing Body overseeing the school and a Chief Executive leading the wider trust. The entity's role is to govern and administer the school rather than to trade commercially, consistent with its status as a registered academy trust rather than a private business.
