The GFM is the first localised Multi-Academy Trust (MAT) established in Hampshire. The founding schools of the GFM are Bay House Academy, Gomer Junior School and LWS Academy. Brune Park School joined the GFM in May 2017 and Rowner Junior School in September 2018. The GFM recognises the need to work in partnership with Hampshire County Council and all local schools to build better outcomes and opportunities for the young people of Gosport and Fareham. It is through our collective endeavour that we can make a difference, with Gosport and Fareham learners’ achievement being greater and them aspiring further. The local commitment to this initiative is overwhelming; schools and communities see this as an opportunity for a group of schools to become greater than the sum of their parts. The members and directors have a clear ambition and belief in local schools working together for the benefit of all their young people. The GFM was formed on the 1st April 2017 with Brune Park joining from the 1st May 2017.
