Forest Federation is made up of four small, vibrant, forward thinking village rural primary schools based in the beautiful countryside surrounding the market town of Towcester. Three of the four schools Whittlebury CE Primary School - Tiffield VA Primary School -Stoke Bruerne CE Primary School federated in 2012 and were the first federation of three schools in Northamptonshire. This union has enabled them to pool their strengths and experiences in the classroom, alongside leadership and governance to create a richer and quality learning experience for all the children. This model that they created for leadership of small schools has been replicated many times within the county. All schools where judged Good by Ofsted in 2013 with outstanding behaviour. Gayton CE Primary School has joined the federation and is an Outstanding school judged by Ofsted.
