Trust Partners
In April 2010, Palatine changed its status and became a Trust school. This change of status allows Palatine to form formal partnerships with organisations to support the school.
With support of our new Trust partners, there is every reason to be optimistic that Palatine will meet its targets and most importantly enhance the life chances of our fantastic students.
