About First Federation
Our trust started life as a small group of schools in South Devon and our founding schools have been working together since 2006. We have a wonderfully diverse family of 29 primary schools which range from two-class village schools to much larger, urban primaries, which benefit greatly from working collaboratively, sharing collective experience and providing support and inspiration to one another.
