About Chiltern Learning Trust

We are a high-performing Multi-Academy Trust, comprising 17 schools & 4 Partner Schools across Luton and Bedfordshire. Among the top five highest-performing trusts in the country, our Trust is renowned for its commitment to excellence, partnership, and continuous improvement. 

Our core values—Honesty, Care, Collaboration, Inspiration, Ambition, and Belonging—unite our schools and staff, creating a strong sense of community and shared purpose. Paired with a vision to educate, empower and inspire generations of children through a network of outstanding schools, we strive every day to be recognised at a local, regional and national level as the absolute benchmark for teaching and learning. Delivering excellence for all is a collective responsibility embraced throughout our Trust.

In addition to our schools, CLT is a leading provider of teacher training through the Chiltern Training Group (CTG), an ‘outstanding’ Initial Teacher Training provider, and the Chiltern Teaching School Hub (CTSH) .CTSH runs two national Teaching School Hubs, working with schools across Milton Keynes, Bedford, Luton, and surrounding areas to raise educational standards. At every level, we are dedicated to delivering exceptional teaching, fostering the next generation of high-quality educators, and contributing to system-wide educational improvement.
