Acorn Federation
In September 2019, Fossdene and Cherry Orchard Primary Schools began to work together in partnership with one Executive Headteacher across both schools and a Head of School on each site. In 2022 this was formalised Acorn Federation of Greenwich was created. The federation enables greater opportunities and flexibility for staff development, curriculum design and the sharing of pedagogy, as well as allowing for some "back-room" staff to be shared. Each school retains it's own distinct identity whilst sharing good practice and expertise.
In September 2023, Acorn Federation partnered with two other Greenwich schools, DeLucy Primary School and Gallions Mount. Together we have put on cross-school events, including a maths and debating competition, as well as training and networking opportunities for staff.
