The trust was founded as the East Norfolk Academy Trust on 14 August 2012, changing its name to the Inspiration Trust on 27 January 2013. Although technically a limited company, as a multi-academy trust the company is an exempt charity, principally regulated by the Department for Education.
Inspiration Trust board members include founder and chairman Theodore Agnew, David Tibble and Julian Hanson-Smith who have backgrounds in business and finance rather than education.
