Diocese of Leicester

Learn Academies Trust is a mixed, Church of England and Community MAT, supported at member-level by the Diocese of Leicester. All Learn Academies Trust schools, whether they are Church of England or Community schools, are treasured members of the Diocesan family of schools, served and supported by the Diocese. The Diocese values and celebrates each school, its individual ethos, distinctiveness and identity, regardless of whether that identity is explicitly Christian or not. The Church of England Vision for Education, with its core values of Wisdom, Hope, Community and Dignity, is ‘hospitable to diversity, respects freedom of religion and belief, and encourages others to contribute from the depths of their own traditions and understandings.’

Leicestershire County Council

Through the service level agreements we maintain with the LA such as, the Performance and Business Information Service, Internal Audit, Health and Safety and Safeguarding, we maintain strong relationships with our local authority colleagues.

Whole Education and Leadership Matters

All Learn Academies Trust schools are members of Leadership Matters and Whole Education. These important partnerships provide access to high quality leadership and curriculum development.

Confederation of School Trusts

Learn Academies Trust is a member of the newly inaugurated Confederation of School Trusts (formerly FASNA). This organisation provides a voice for school trusts, advocating for ethical organisations, building a culture of system health and connecting and supporting executive and governance leaders.

National Institute of Teaching

We are delighted to assume our role as Associate College for the National Institute of Teaching (NIoT) delivering programmes across the region to support ongoing teacher development. We are keen to ensure that our programmes capture, exemplify and share the lived experience of teachers and leaders, and a significant strength of this partnership with NIoT will be providing the opportunity for participants to build and share knowledge in a way that is respectful to their time, and above all, develops them as teachers and leaders to effectively serve the pupils in their schools. We enjoy working with NIoT as part of the network of Associate Colleges to ensure teacher development sits at the heart of education in the East Midlands.
