Are You a School?

Why join us

At LIFE we support schools to deliver excellent pupil outcomes, create vibrant, exciting environments and offer rewarding careers for our employees.

Our purpose is to build great learning communities where children flourish. To accomplish our mission, we use our 3 core beliefs:

    • Courageous optimism
    • Boundless creativity
    • Heartfelt compassion

These beliefs are at the centre of everything we do. We live and breathe them.

As a LIFE school, you will continue to be autonomous and individual with your own values, culture and ways of doing things. You will also be part of a wider learning community knitted together by the LIFE ethos.

We are on an exciting journey and we invite you to learn what it would mean to become part of our Trust.

  • Extensive school to school support
  • Shared solutions for every conceivable problem
  • Direct immediate access to skilled professionals who are working in schools themselves
  • Education support and development to enhance sustained school improvement
  • Leadership and Management support for the professional and personal development of your leaders
