WMAT is a multi-academy trust currently comprising 18 schools/college in the Surrey and North Hampshire area. The Trust was formed in 2017 and currently includes a Sixth Form college, 7 secondary schools, 5 special needs schools and 5 primary schools.

It is our intention that as existing contracts come to an end, any new schools will join one of the two Trust contracts with an aligned contract end date.
A key element of WMAT’s vision for our schools, is the provision of exceptional learning environments. Creating inspiring classrooms in which to learn, teach and spaces for students / children and staff to work and relax sits as one of our core values. We describe this as our drive to create and maintain ‘exceptional learning environments’. Our Catering partner will be a key driver in the maintenance of exceptional environments; both from an aesthetic and environmental sustainability perspective. We are looking to build a relationship which provides an excellent catering service to all pupils within each of our leaning environments.
Importantly, we value developing ‘partnerships’ with specialist providers across a range of specialities. Working together we will develop KPIs to sit alongside regular qualitative feedback from our Business / Operations / Premises leads; ‘Stronger Together’. Our catering partner will mirror our passion to be innovative and to initiate innovative catering solutions and increase student meal uptake whilst providing an excellent healthy meal options.
