Home Aims Information News Vacancies Contact Us Central Learning Partnership Trust As a further development of our school to school support Heath Park have formed a multi school single shared trust which will henceforth be referred to as The Central Learning Partnership Trust (CLPT). The initial aims of the trust were to address the short term needs of Moseley Park, through a long term solution, embracing a collaborative approach to continuous school improvement, involving Heath Park and possibly other partners. The role of Heath Park as a sponsor for Moseley Park has been at the request of the Local Authority and has the support of the Secretary of State. The landscape of education is changing significantly, with the capacity of LAs to support schools, and in particular school improvement, significantly reduced. Additionally, the new financial constraints under which we will all be working will impact negatively upon individual schools capacity to deliver in isolation. This alternative model of school leadership and governance provides a solution for our future working, with schools collaborating to establish economies of scale and develop capacity to support all students within the partnership to fulfil their potential. The model is purposely hierarchical, structured and formal in order to guarantee collaborative working, shared aims and objectives. However, the uniqueness of partner schools and their individual identities will be fiercely protected. Diversity is viewed as a major strength of the partnership and there is no desire to adopt a cloning approach to school improvement. Each school will retain its autonomy but this will be directly proportional to their capacity to deliver; measured by the most recent Ofsted judgement. The role of Heath Park within the partnership is determined by its track record in supporting school improvement. Both the Executive Headteacher and Headteacher are National Leaders of Education and the school a National Support School: through this, support has been provided for four Wolverhampton schools and two schools beyond the city have been Gaining Ground partners. In addition, improvement partnerships have been established with schools In Rotherham and Barnsley and staff involved have undertaken a programme of exchange visits. Through this varied activity Heath Park has developed the personnel and structures to support school to school working and is well placed to lead a formal federation.
