About
Leading Learners
Leading Learners Multi-Academy Trust was founded by the leaders of Tyldesley Primary School in 2016, with the vision of providing a supportive platform for schools in the local area and beyond.
We are currently a family of 10 primary schools, based across the Greater Manchester, Yorkshire, and Wirral region. We are united in a mission to help children find a path where they can explore their talents, grasp opportunities, and determine their own futures. Giving each and every one of them chances and choices is at the heart of what we do.
Ensuring there is a careful balance between autonomy and standardisation through collaboration is key to our philosophy. We want schools to retain their unique character, whilst ensuring they are ambitious for all children through implementation of our robust systems and processes.

This is underpinned by our three core pillars; the building blocks for our approach:

Equality of opportunity
Cultural appreciation
