About Learn Academies Trust
We are a Multi-Academy Trust, established in 2016, that comprises a mixed family of 19 Church of England and Community Primary Schools across Leicestershire, including Leicester City.
Our Church Schools also benefit from being part of the larger family of 97 schools and academies within the Diocese of Leicester. All our schools are highly inclusive. Children and families from all faiths and none are welcomed, respected and embraced equally at every one of our schools.
We believe in the power of education to transform lives. We commit, in courageous fellowship, to the restless pursuit of our core aims of equity, wellbeing and excellence.
We have over 3800 students across our 19 primary schools and we are looking for dedicated and visionary professionals committed to putting these pupils at the heart of everything they do.
We seek employees who are prepared to take personal responsibility and constantly challenge the norm to improve performance. We want our schools and our central team to be great places to work. We want our staff development opportunities to be first class and we want to enable staff who are ambitious to grow their careers with us. To give our learners the best education and opportunities, we are committed to recruiting and retaining the very best people in all areas of our organisation.
Through collaboration and by nurturing leaders at all levels of the organisation, we develop professional expertise, leadership and talent from within the trust, contributing to robust systems of career development, school improvement, school-to-school support and peer review.
Our thriving and innovative professional learning community uses Research Lesson Study, coaching, joint professional development events, specialist networks, teacher research groups, external partnerships and membership of professional organisations to secure inspirational learning for every child.
Learn Academies Trust contributes to a number of established strategic partnerships. We provide CPDL, including National Professional Qualifications, locally and regionally through Learn Academies Trust Institute of Education and in partnership with the Church of England Foundation for Educational Leadership. Learn-AT Institute of Education provides initial teacher training in partnership with the National Institute of Teaching.
We are working together to establish coherent and efficient trust-wide systems that help our staff to concentrate on the main thing, providing an excellent education for all of our pupils.
Learn Academies Trust is a mixed, Church of England and community trust, supported at member-level by the Diocese of Leicester. All of our academies, 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.
