Melksham Oak Community School is hoping to become an academy by April.

The school also wants to be part of the Academy Trust of Melksham, a multi-academy Trust with six other schools in the area.

A consultation has now began and will run until February 27, during this time parents, students, staff, unions, and the local community will be able to have their say on the proposal.
