The Pinnacle Learning Trust Documents

The Pinnacle Learning Trust was established through a long-standing, strong and effective relationship between The Hathershaw College and Oldham Sixth Form College, with Werneth Primary School joining in February 2019, Broadfield Primary joining in April 2023 and Alexandra Park Junior School in April 2024.

We are committed to our mission of improving lives and life chances at every level, creating extraordinary opportunities and significantly improving our children's and young people's chances to make progress, achieve and go on to succeed in the lives and careers they want and deserve. We are committed to raising aspirations and achievements across all our academies, through the development of outstanding practice and collaboration and as a result of continuously learning from one another.

Our Trust has an Oldham focus and all our academies are at the heart of the communities they serve. Together, we are a crucial part of the wider Oldham community. We understand our communities well, and work closely with a wide range of partners in the town and beyond. We also have a reputation that goes well beyond the town.
