Welcome to our Trust, a partnership of schools in Leicester formed in June 2023.

The name, Aspire Learning Partnership, came after extensive discussion, and we believe it perfectly sums up what we are about, being specifically chosen to reflect our core values.

Our aim is to be different, to stand out from the rest. Our schools serve unique communities, are individual in their approaches, and this is to be valued, celebrated and retained. We work together as schools, making the most of our individual and collective strengths, and not imposing systems and structures on schools unnecessarily. However, we never sit on our laurels. We believe we can all continue to improve in order to provide the highest standards of education for the children in our care and so challenge each other to achieve even more. Children only get one shot at education and it is our moral imperative to ensure they have the very best deal!

OUR MISSION

is to bring about EXCELLENCE THROUGH COLLABORATION

OUR VISION

We aim to successfully collaborate to bring about the very best for everyone involved in our Trust – children, staff, families and the wider communities we serve.

ASPIRE to be the best you can be’ is the core message for our Trust, and for everyone involved with it in any way. Our aim is for all to have high aspirations, to want to succeed and constantly improve, and then to do so!

LEARNING is at the heart of all we do, transforming individual lives and the success of our communities.

Our schools support all children to attain the highest standards possible in the academic, but also much more. Our schools provide rich opportunities for children to be successful and prepare them for their next steps.

Our biggest resource is the people working in our schools. They are highly valued for the contribution each one makes and will be supported to continue to learn and develop in their role.

We believe that PARTNERSHIP working is the key to significant and sustained change, and leads to the highest levels of achievement and for all and excellence in all aspects of our work. Each school serves a unique community and will retain its individuality whilst working collaboratively, supporting and challenging others to constantly improve. Schools and the Trust are led with integrity and mutual respect for all.
