Together Towards Excellence, Ambition, and Inspiration

Welcome from the CEO

The Chiltern Learning Trust is an outstanding and progressive multi-academy trust in Luton and Bedfordshire.

The schools within the Trust are thriving and moving forwards. Our Trust also includes the Chiltern Training Group (CTG), a high quality Initial Teacher Training provider, which is one of only a very few ‘outstanding’ school based providers in the country. Similarly within our Trust is the Chiltern Teaching School Hub (CTSH), a well-established high quality school improvement process and Acorn Teaching Group.

We are committed to excellent standards of teaching and learning, and helping raise the attainment of all learners.  Our vision is to educate, empower and inspire generations of children through a network of outstanding schools that are recognised at a local, regional and national level as being the absolute benchmark in teaching and learning.
