Future Academies is a multi-academy trust running 10 primary and secondary schools, a teacher training college and the Centre for Latin Excellence.
[1] In 2013 Labour councillors called for an inquiry after a new Pimlico primary school, where Nash was co-chairman of the governors, appointed an unqualified teacher as headmistress ahead of its opening with 60 pupils in September 2013.
[12] Concerns were raised about the introduction of compulsory Latin at Laureate Academy, with parents fearing the trust planned a grammar school-type emphasis on academic rather than vocational options.
[11] In 2020, Pimlico Academy appointed a new head-teacher who changed the dress code in a way that alienated pupils, staff and parents and was seen as racist, because it forbade colourful hijabs and hairstyles with a lot of height, such as afros.
[17] In September 2022, teachers from the academy chain voted to go on strike, claiming the trust was "blighting the life chances of the children" with a curriculum developed by Caroline Nash that was said to be among the most narrow in the country.
