We’re delighted that the DfE has formally approved the merger of Chiltern Learning Trust and @IFtL_MAT ! 🎉 Together, we will become one Trust of 43 schools supporting over 24,000 young people, creating new opportunities for pupils and colleagues. An exciting new chapter begins! ✨

A lovely evening at @Cedars_Upper It was fantastic to see the school buzzing, with families from across the Leighton Buzzard and Linslade communities coming along to explore the school and see everything Cedars has to offer. There was such a brilliant energy throughout the evening, with so much going on across the different departments and students proudly showing visitors around. A wonderful showcase of the Cedars community. 💙 @JeffoA28 @AJRAllModCons @unleashing_me @mjpGibbs @Mnormanedu

Come along to Shefford this Friday @sheffordcampton - help us celebrate the life of our dear friend @srfox1970 - Stephen sadly and suddenly passed away at a very young age last year. We miss him greatly as do the @ArdleyHill community where he was their much loved Headteacher.

Now that we’re fully in the swing of the autumn term, we’d like to shine a spotlight on the fantastic work our Operations and Site Teams have been doing behind the scenes over the summer holidays! 🌟 While our schools may have been a little quieter over the summer, our dedicated teams have been working hard to make sure everything was ready for the return of our pupils and staff in September. 🏫🔧 From maintenance and repairs to improvements, preparations and everything in between, their hard work, dedication and attention to detail have helped ensure our schools were safe, welcoming and ready for a new academic year. 👏 A huge thank you to all our Operations and Site Teams for everything you’ve done over the summer - your work makes a real difference across our schools and to the whole Chiltern Learning Trust community. 💙 We couldn’t do it without you! 🙌 @AJRAllModCons @JeffoA28 @unleashing_me @LorraineHughe20 @giles_cath_CLT @EmmaEmmd8

What an inspiring first week back across Chiltern Learning Trust! 💙 A particular highlight was visiting Gilbert Inglefield Academy and seeing the incredible transformation achieved in just one term. Refurbished buildings and grounds, a brilliant new staff team, a new curriculum and, most importantly, 650 smiling pupils! 🌟 It was also fantastic to visit Linslade School and see the impressive start made by new Headteacher Marc Comb. A brilliant start to the new academic year! 💙

Another brilliant day welcoming our staff back to school! 💙 It has been wonderful visiting schools across the Trust over the past two days and seeing so many familiar faces, as well as welcoming new colleagues to our schools. 🌟 A huge thank you to all our staff for the incredible work you have done over the past year and throughout the summer holidays. Your dedication, energy and commitment make such a difference to our pupils and our schools. It has been fantastic to see everyone feeling excited and ready for the year ahead. We can’t wait to see what the new school year brings! 💙✨ #WelcomeBack #BackToSchool #ChilternLearningTrust @unleashing_me @AJRAllModCons @JeffoA28 @TryThisTeaching @LorraineHughe20
