Welcome to our Melrose Learning Trust website. We hope this website helps you understand more about our vision and the principles behind the partnerships we have. As a Trust, we are committed to providing all our pupils with opportunities to allow them to achieve highly, be confident and engage in a wide range of enrichment experiences.
Hopefully, our website will allow you to learn more about what our trust is achieving through collaboration across all of our schools and what our trust could offer your school whether you are already part of an academy trust or not.
We are a growing trust of Church of England and non-Church of England schools in the Northeast. Our central offices are located in Durham; however, our 10 schools cover a wide geographical area across Darlington, Stockton, Hartlepool and County Durham.
Our Trust vision is 'growing together in life in all its fullness', and this drives the work we do to allow our schools, pupils and staff to flourish through the opportunities we provide. We are committed to providing children with high achievement, confidence and enrichment, which is developed through excellent teaching, stimulating curriculums and strong moral values.

We believe we have a great deal to offer schools who would like to share in a successful, supportive and collaborative educational organisation.
