Lichfield’s The Bridge Academy Joins the Arthur Terry Learning Partnership

The Arthur Terry Learning Partnership is delighted to welcome The Bridge Academy to its growing family of schools.

The Bridge, which is all through 5-16 Short Stay School based on two sites in Lichfield and Rugeley, is the sixth Lichfield school to join the respected multi-academy trust, which connects academies in Birmingham North Warwickshire and Staffordshire. ATLP’s partnership now includes 21 schools and one national teaching school.

The Bridge has successfully been working with the ATLP for a number of months and head of school, James Morris (pictured), is delighted to see the school officially join the partnership on 1 August.

James said:

“We are excited have officially joined the ATLP and to be part of a family of schools whose vision and values align to those of The Bridge. This partnership will enable us to build on the progress we are making to provide a safe and supportive environment where our children thrive.”

The Bridge will join ATLP’s Staffordshire learning hub of schools, comprising six Lichfield schools and three Tamworth schools.

ATLP CEO Richard Gill CBE, said:

“It is a pleasure and a privilege to welcome The Bridge to our learning family. James is an excellent leader, who shares our commitment to putting children at the heart of all we do. He also recognises that together we are even stronger, and everybody across our One Trust is delighted to be working alongside such an amazing team. By joining together we can bring further opportunities to our children and communities.”
