CfBT currently has 16 academies and free schools, with another three opening in September.
According to the charity, its trustees agreed in 2011 to cease operating its portfolio of nine standalone nurseries in England.
The Trust will continue to deliver its Birth to Five Service across Lincolnshire, which won the Nursery World 2012 Working with Parents award, as well as its five nursery units attached to independent schools.
CfBT Education Trust says its ‘two-year divestment programme’ is now almost complete with seven of the nine nurseries continuing to operate under new ownership.
In 2011, the Trust sold four of its settings, Cherry Trees Nursery (Slough), Children’s House Nursery (Binfield), Norwood Manor Nursery (Norwood) and Silchester Manor Day Nursery (Taplow) to the nursery group All About Children.
