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.

OUR MISSION

Our educational mission is simple: ANY young person from ANY background deserves an EQUAL chance to be successful in whatever they choose to do. The trust is committed to supporting young people to open doors to their futures and to feel confident that they can thrive in a competitive world.

 OUR PHILOSOPHY

Our philosophy is clear. We promote a student-centred approach that is underpinned by the understanding that the highest quality education is a right that all young people deserve regardless of their starting points.

We are dedicated to providing young people with the strongest foundations; educational qualifications that they can feel proud about because their education has taught them how to feel proud.

We know that promoting a positive, proactive approach that celebrates success unites school communities and breaks down barriers to learning.

Students under our care will be taught how to learn in this way. We will encourage students at every level of ability to aspire to develop personally and academically and we will use the ‘4Rs’ as cornerstones of outstanding learning.

The ‘4Rs’ encourage students to take responsibility for their own learning, help them to grow in confidence and prepare them for life outside of education. They are:

• RESILIENCE - The ability to bounce back when the going gets tough.
• RECIPROCITY - Learning to work together and show care and understanding for each other.
• RESOURCEFULNESS - Having the confidence to ask for help and to find answers in new ways.
• REFLECTIVENESS - Considering what needs to be done to make the next steps.
