The Chelmsford Learning Partnership is a multi-academy trust for schools that consists of 8 academies.

Directly funded by the Department for Education to provide education for children from ages 4-19, its schools serve their local communities by providing school places at the primary, secondary, and post 16 phases.

Formally known as The Boswells Academy Trust, the organisation changed its name in 2017 to reflect the growth of the trust beyond one school. The schools in The Chelmsford Learning Partnership are: Barnes Farm Infant School, Barnes Farm Junior School, Perryfield Infant School, Roding Valley High School, The Beaulieu Park School, The Boswells School, The Tyrells Primary School, and Lakelands Primary School.

The trust’s vision for its schools is simple. It believes that, as a collective of schools, they are stronger together and, that by working together, they can provide an outstanding education for every child in its family of schools.

The Chelmsford Learning Partnership also believe that it is important for schools in the trust to keep their individual identity and that all schools operate with their own autonomous Headteachers, leadership teams, staff, and Local Governing Bodies; each with their own ethos that makes every school in the trust unique.

To support this, the organisation have a ‘Vision, Ethos and Values’ document created by stakeholders that sets out the Trust’s purpose. This is further supported by the Trust’s 5 Year Strategy Document which outlines the strategic approach to the five key areas: Growth, Governance, Resource, People, and Schools.
