Sir Henry Floyd Grammar School (SHFGS) became a multi academy trust in July 2016 and a new organisation Insignis Academy Trust (IAT) was formed. IAT is a Buckinghamshire based multi academy trust comprising six schools – Princes Risborough School, Sir Henry Floyd Grammar School, Sir William Ramsay School, The Kingsbrook School, The Mandeville School and Ashmead Combined School.
