MERCIA ACADEMY JOINS LIONHEART EDUCATIONAL TRUST

At Mercia Academy, we share Lionheart Educational Trust’s mission to ensure that every child, regardless of their background, has an equal chance to succeed in whatever they choose to pursue. We are committed to working in partnership with Lionheart to achieve this goal. Our dedication aligns with the Trust’s objectives, as we strive to equip our students with the academic knowledge and transferable skills needed to thrive in later life.

We are proud of our highly-skilled workforce, both teaching and associate staff, who are dedicated to providing the best opportunities for young people in our local community. We extend a warm welcome to the staff, students, families, and all those associated with the Lionheart Educational Trust, and we look forward to starting this new chapter in partnership with all stakeholders.

Joining the Lionheart Educational Trust not only strengthens the Trust's secondary provision and expands its reach into South Derbyshire, but also enhances the collective skillset of the Trust, now comprising 15 schools. We are excited about the opportunities this partnership brings for our academy and our community.
