I believe that education has the power to create new and exciting life chances for young people and I am passionate about seeing them being able to thrive academically, socially and emotionally. Lionheart Educational Trust aims to play a part in preparing them to be confident, resilient, mature, aspirational and active young people. It is essential to shape learners with these key qualities and as a Trust, we seek to break down barriers in order to provide opportunities for all students to progress. I am proud to have a staff body who are united in this aim; to drive up standards and provide exciting opportunities for young people. It is imperative for the Lionheart Educational Trust that every person who seeks employment with us, shares our vision.
The Lionheart Educational Trust continually strives to provide a range of educational experiences that are challenging, enjoyable and able to break down any barriers, so that everyone has a chance succeed. This involves seeking to create lifelong learners and offer outstanding provision for our 4-19 year olds. To do that, we invest in our teachers, leaders and associate staff through empowerment, encouraging the sharing of best practice across the Trust, career planning and the extensive offering of CPD opportunities.
When joining one of our Trust schools, you will undoubtedly experience the unique culture of that school, built from its history, local community, parents and most importantly its student body. However, you will also benefit from being part of the Lionheart family, with shared resources, centralised support and future development opportunities.
The Lionheart Educational Trust established in 2014 with Beauchamp College as its founding provider, and has now grown to 11 schools - from primaries through to post-16 - making up our growing East Midlands educational trust.
As our journey continues to open up doors for young people across Leicestershire, we hope that you will join us too.
