Employer Description:

The Talentum Learning Trust was formed in April 2016. Three schools, previously in a Hard Federation, converted to academy status within the Multi-Academy Trust.

The schools, Churnet View Middle School, Leek High School and Westwood College had a history of collaboration and working together which was formalised through the hard federation in 2012. A natural development was to convert to a MAT and further extend the formality of the relationship.
