Bright Tribe Trust
The Bright Tribe Trust was a multi-academy trust,[1] active in October 2015, that took on failing schools.[2]
A new Interim Executive Board (IEB) would be brought onto the school, along with a new headteacher. Bright Tribe would cite a school's continued financial deficit, and declining pupil numbers as reasons for subsequently the pulling out of sponsorship.[3]
Bright Tribe sponsored 10 academies in Suffolk, Essex, Greater Manchester and the North of England.[4]
