L.E.A.D. Academy Trust

our vision is that... ...through outstanding leadership we will provide the highest quality education to enable every pupil to realise their full potential. of course, every good school aspires to this aim, so what makes us different? we passionately believe in the power of partnership working as a catalyst for ensuring more children receive an exceptional education. our member schools know the transformational impact it can have from experience. at the same time, we recognise the importance of autonomy. every school has its own context and challenges. this is why we encourage our member schools to lead and manage in a way that preserves their individual identity and responds to the specific needs of their children and community. the combination of autonomy and collaboration across key areas of leadership and management, underpinned by shared vision, values and best practice is what makes the l.e.a.d. academy trust unique. we are also strengthened by the support, guidance and wide-ranging skills of our experienced board of trustees. the acronym l.e.a.d. embodies the four core principles at the heart of the trust: strong leadership at every level; empowering every child to aim high; giving every child the opportunity to achieve and constantly driving for improvement. our innovative model is attracting widespread attention from schools nationally that share our vision and values.
