Lionheart is 10!
T
his term we reached a special milestone: 10 years as a multi-academy Trust.
In April 2014, Lionheart welcomed two Birstall primary schools – Highcliffe and Riverside – to join founding school, Beauchamp College. Now, a decade later, we are a thriving Trust comprising 16 schools across Leicester, Leicestershire and Derbyshire, but our mission has not changed. At heart of everything, is our drive to ensure that ANY young person from ANY background has an EQUAL chance to access educational and holistic opportunities to support them in being successful in whatever they choose to do. To support us in delivering this mission, there have been many highlights over the last 10 years, including:
•
The development of an ambitious curriculum that inspires and stretches inquisitive young minds.
•
Investment of over £40m in capital projects to provide inspiring learning environments.
•
Holistic opportunities including the Duke of Edinburgh's Award and Lionheart Speaks.
•
Alternative provision for students requiring an alternative educational pathway.
•
Chromebooks and WiFi for all families disadvantaged during Covid-19 so no child was left unconnected at home.
•
Over 100 students progressing to prestigious Oxbridge universities.
