Our Trust academies work closely with the LEAD Teaching School Hub and other local schools.

Teaching schools hubs are outstanding schools that work with other schools, of any type, to provide high-quality training and development to new and experienced school staff. Teaching School Hubs are part of the government initiative to encourage, enable and empower school to school support. The hubs have been given this central role in raising standards by instigating a self-improving and sustainable school-led system.

Teaching School Hubs work with schools in their local area to identify, develop and co-ordinate expertise for the benefit of all children.

As a school, we work closely within these hubs and with other schools. Some of our work includes Peer Review and working as Local Leaders of Education (LLE)/ Specialist Leaders of Education (SLE).
