The Trust started life as Cambridge Meridian Education Trust (CMET) which was incorporated in March 2009 in order to enter the competition to promote the new schools at Northstowe a new town proposed between Swavesey and Cambridge. It was founded by those who already were passionate about education in the area – the governors and trustees of Swavesey Village College; an outstandingly successful and innovative school.In March 2011 CMET became Cambridge Meridian Academies Trust (CMAT), a multi-academy trust, this enabled Swavesey Village College to convert to academy status, sponsor other academies, and help spread good education practice.In April 2022 Cambridge Meridian Academies Trust (CMAT) and Cambridge Primary Education Trust (CPET) confirm their voluntary merger – and become Meridian Trust.Under the new Meridian Trust, 23 CMAT primary, secondary and special schools will come together with five CPET primary schools, educating approximately pupils. The Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Teaching School Hub, based at CPET’s Histon and Impington Brook Primary School, will also become part of Meridian Trust.
