We are proud to be part of Trust in Learning (Academies) – (TiLA).

Trust in Learning is a charity that has been set up to help schools and children. Trust in Learning is committed to improving schools and the experiences of children and young people so that they can become successful learners and responsible citizens.

Trust in Learning’s Vision: is to improve the quality of schooling and outcomes in Bristol and the West of England for children and young people by promoting communities that trust in learning and the endeavour of education to transform lives. We support and challenge this improvement through fostering the autonomy and empowerment of effective leadership and governance.

Trust in Learning’s Values: are ones that promote an inclusive approach to education where we seek to overcome social disadvantage and bring about social cohesion and equality.

Trust Members and the Local Governing Board

Trust in Learning is an education charity formed in 2008 and is an Academy Sponsor based in Bristol whose principal purpose is to create inclusive education communities that provide excellent education and excellent outcomes for children and young people.

There continues to be a degree of misunderstanding about academies and academy trusts. We are a charity whose civic responsibility is to help improve the education of children. We support schools across educational sectors from nursery and primary to secondary and special schools.

In particular Trust in Learning is committed to helping to overcome the inequalities between our communities so that every one of our children can learn well and can prosper.

As a Trust we are supported by the University of the West of England together with the City of Bristol College. These two institutions make up the membership of the Trust and they share a common ethos to seek to provide inspiring educational experiences that will equip our children with the necessary skills, knowledge and understanding that will provide all of them with the opportunity to go onto university or choose to pursue a career of their choice.
