“As a new school leader, being part of a Trust has provided a layer of support that I would not have had otherwise. The network of experience headteachers, sharing of best practice and access to expertise in areas such as estates, facilities, Human Resources and marketing have been invaluable. All of that support has helped me lead my school with confidence and (importantly) complete autonomy.
I could not recommend Sussex Learning Trust more! We are truly Stronger Together.” — Executive Principal
“Under Sussex Learning Trust, I’ve found that Headteachers are empowered with full sight of their budgets, and we have dedicated finance liaison officers to assist with budget management. Local Governing Bodies retain their governance oversight, ensuring schools are responsive to their communities. The Trustees are an active presence, attending meetings and visiting schools regularly.
This model has given me a strong sense of security, pride, and confidence in the direction we are heading, and I am enormously proud to be part of Sussex Learning Trust.” — Headteacher
