New Schools Join the Learning Trust for Excellence



As you are aware, our school is part of the Learning Trust for Excellence (LTE), a collaboration of 7 local schools who work together, share good practice and develop opportunities for our staff and children. Following the success of the Trust and the significant impact it has had on improving teaching and learning in our schools, it will be expanding to work with more schools in our community. The LTE is delighted to announce that the following local schools will be joining the Trust this summer:

Court Farm Primary
The Deanery Church of England Primary
Maney Hill Primary
Wylde Green Primary

The schools will engage in all the collaborative opportunities and activities for a year in the first instance. All the schools have worked together previously as part of the wider group of Sutton Coldfield primaries so we are very much looking forward to the exciting opportunities this expansion will bring, welcoming new colleagues and learning from each other.

Marble Run Competition

Lots of children entered our 'Marble Run' competition and we were very impressed with the entries. Everyone who entered did so with enthusiasm and had thought really carefully about how their marble run was going to work. Mrs Garrington and Mrs Menmuir judged them on Thursday and the winners will be announced this week.

Photographs will be added to our website under special events.

LTE feature in Cooperative Schools Newsletter

Sutton Coldfield Trust’s website and award


The Learning Trust for Excellence (LTE) in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham, which brings together seven primary schools with a range of partners, has been awarded a Leading Aspect Award in recognition of the impact of the wide range of collaborative working taking place. The award recognises the quality and commitment by all involved and the engagement of stakeholders along with a demonstration of high quality leadership and management in the development of the Trust. Evidence illustrates the significant contribution the collaboration is having on improving teaching and learning underpinned by robust systems and processes to support effective monitoring and evaluation of the improved outcomes and impact. A range of stakeholders including teachers, parents, governors, pupils and Head teachers were interviewed as part of the verification process required in order to achieve the award.
Rachel Davis, Chair of the Trust, said: “We are delighted and proud to receive the Leading Aspect Award and national recognition of our achievements. We have such strong belief in the work we are doing and the positive outcomes for all our establishments and the wider community. The Trust has worked hard building professional relationships and strong foundations based on trust and respect, as well as identifying areas for truly beneficial collaborative working. The impacts are already evident and the motivation amongst all staff and partners to keep building the Trust is strong. There is no doubt that the outcomes for children are tangible. There is so much more the Trust can achieve, this is just the beginning.”

BBC Midlands Today

It was really good to see our school mentioned within the BBC News coverage of the Learning Trust for Excellence. Just to clarify, we are still a maintained school. This means that we are working under the umbrella of Birmingham City Council . We are not working independently from the council as it may have appeared in the report.

Moor Hall on TV

Did anyone see Moor Hall on Midlands Today this evening?  ( Monday)

I saw the children enjoying choir.... A glimpse of Mrs Collins and Mr Watts.

There were shots of the children playing on the field with Mrs Garrington being interviewed.

If you looked carefully you saw the back of Mr Steggall's head too!


[NOTE: If you missed it, the show can still be seen on iPlayer until Tuesday evening. Click here to watch - and scroll to 21:20 if you want to skip straight to the bit with Moor Hall in it!]
