Welcome to the James Marks Academy Trust

Established in 2021, from it's founder school Roman Fields, the Trust has grown to include Forest House Education centre and from September 2023, the James Marks Academy. The Trust supports pupils, who are fairly mainstream in terms of their academic ability, but have been unable to access school, normally as a result of significant anxiety, or mental health issues. The Trust aims to build on the success of Roman Fields Academy – a provision in the west of Hertfordshire that has won plaudits for its work, particularly those with ASC.

It is the ambition of the Trust to further expand and improve the educational provision of those with Special Educational needs across the county. Consequently, with the arrival of our brand new purpose built free school; The James Marks Academy, we will have a geographical foothold across the county. This school will build on the work already accomplished at Roman Fields and Forest House through supporting a larger cohort of vulnerable pupils in the East of the county.
