CAMBRIDGE PARK ACADEMY LIMITED

What CAMBRIDGE PARK ACADEMY LIMITED does

Cambridge Park Academy Limited is a UK state-funded special academy located on Cambridge Road in Grimsby, North East Lincolnshire, operating within the Humber Education Trust multi-academy trust structure. It delivers education to children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), serving roughly 42 staff members who support a cohort of pupils across primary, secondary, and Post-16 phases (CRC provision). The school's pedagogy is delivered through three individualized curriculum tracks labelled Fundamentals, Foundations, and Functional, supplemented by embedded therapeutic services including Art Therapy, Play Therapy, and Music Interventions, plus a Magic Breakfast club and a CPA Media Crew.

The academy's commercial model is that of a publicly funded UK school: there is no tuition fee, and revenue is derived from per-pupil SEND allocations from the Department for Education routed through the North East Lincolnshire local authority and HET, with additional income from pupil premium, sports premium, ancillary services (school meals, uniforms), and grants. Its go-to-market is not commercial but administrative: pupils are enrolled through the local authority's SEN assessment process.

Beyond the classroom, the academy operates a Family & Community Hub that delivers parent coaching, a MY Family Coach service, parent voice initiatives, and free training for parents and carers in partnership with Focus Independent Adult Social Work. It engages with the North East Lincolnshire Local Offer, the NELPCF Parent Carer Forum, and the SPACE Forum, positioning itself as a regional hub for SEND families. The school holds the Leading Parent Partnership Award and is GDPR-compliant as a Data Controller. Digital presence is built on a Juniper Education CMS with Google Translate, YouTube, and Google Maps integrations; there is no proprietary product, no app, and no AI/ML capability disclosed.
