The Calder Learning Trust
“Everybody, Everyday”
The Calder Learning Trust is an all-through school, providing an excellent standard of education for students from 4 – 16 years. There are two phases to our school: Calder Primary School for ages 4 – 11 and Calder High School for ages 11 – 16. Whilst each phase is distinct, they blend seamlessly into one learning community, offering fantastic opportunities for all our students.
Located in the heart of Pennine Yorkshire, in the village of Mytholmroyd, approximately six miles west of Halifax, The Calder Learning Trust serves the Calder Valley community stretching from Halifax through Luddendenfoot, then Mytholmroyd, and beyond to the town of Hebden Bridge and the border of Todmorden. It is ideally situated both close to the countryside and with easy transport links to towns and cities for varied learning opportunities outside the classroom.
We aim for our students from Reception to Year 11 to become confident, responsible and articulate young people, supported within and beyond the curriculum and engaging in the fantastic range of opportunities available. These include The Duke of Edinburgh award, sporting events and competitions and Expressive Arts. We were recently inspected by OFSTED as an all-through school in February 2022, and rated Good.
Our school values are ‘Care, Commitment, Courage’ and are woven through all that we do. Here at The Calder Learning Trust we aim for ‘Everybody, Everyday' to be and do their very best so that they can realise their dreams and aspirations.
We look forward to welcoming you to our school and offering you the opportunity to take a guided tour.
