Academy Trust: Lighthouse Schools Partnership (LSP)

Academy Convversion January 2023  

We are delighted to be part of the Lighthouse Schools Partnership which is an established Schools Trust. There are currently 33 schools in LSP all of which are in North Somerset, Bath and NE Somerset and more recently, Bristol. Schools local to us include: St Andrew’s CE Primary School in Congresbury, Winford CE Primary School, Churchill and Blagdon Primary Schools. School Trusts such as LSP are not-for-profit charities with the key aim of ‘advancing education for public benefit’.

We see a great many advantages for our children, families and staff in joining this Trust. In particular, we are able to share resources and expertise across the LSP schools. The central focus of our collaboration is on the professional development for our staff so that we continually improve in our teaching and learning for the benefit of all our students. LSP have also generously funded improvements to the fabric of our two schools, such as the repair of Burrington roof or additional secure fencing.

We feel that this path has put the Federation of Burrington and Wrington Church Schools in the best place to continue to serve our community as excellent schools.
