About us

The NW24 Partnership began in September 2015 as a response to the changing education landscape. 

Initially composed of 24 schools with a long history of collaboration in the north west of Bristol (hence NW24).  As local authority resources have diminished and school diversity has increased, the partnership has grown significantly and broadened its reach.  What has remained, is the commitment to the power of collaboration as a tool for school improvement and using this to enhance the lives and futures of children in and around Bristol.  

NW24 is made up of over 31 member schools, including:

• 8 local authority maintained schools

• 13 academies or free schools

• 7 faith schools

• 3 secondary schools

• 13 primary schools

• 2 junior schools

• 2 infant schools

• 1 special school

• 10 federations or MATs

Between us we are responsible for the education of over 15,000 young people aged 3-18 and so represent more than one sixth of the schools in the city of Bristol.
