United Learning

Whittingham Primary Academy joined United Learning lately, a large, and growing, group of schools aiming to offer a life changing education to children and young people across England.

Our schools work as a team and achieve more by sharing than any single school could. Our subject specialists, our Group-wide intranet, our own curriculum and our online learning portal all help us share knowledge and resource, helping to simplify work processes and manage workloads for an improved work-life balance.

As a Group, we can reward our staff better: with good career opportunities, better pay, benefits, and ultimately, the satisfaction of helping children to succeed. We invest in our staff well being. Our academies each have at least eight INSET days per year (with three of those solely dedicated to planning), and an ongoing group-wide well being programme. It's an ethos we call ‘the best in everyone’.
