Tarleton Academy
Tarleton Academy is a mixed 11-16 comprehensive school, serving our local community, where every student is valued and treated as an individual. On a daily basis we pride ourselves in being a vibrant community that pulls together to ensure we get the balance right between nurture and support and stretch and challenge, so that all of us can dream big to make those aspirations a reality.
Visitors are always welcome to make an appointment to visit the Academy and see what we have to offer, talk to our staff and students and see us in action. We have no doubt you will be impressed by the warm welcoming ethos around the school and look forward to welcoming you.
High quality Teaching and Learning is at our core with a forward thinking and highly skilled work force. Progress for individual students, regardless of their starting points is outstanding, with students exceeding national expectations in both progress and attainment. This success is built upon a focused and personalised awareness across the school of each individual students’ needs and potential. We know each and every one of our students really well work with them to achieve their personal best.

Endeavour Learning Trust is a small but steadily growing Trust in the North West, currently spanning South Ribble, West Lancashire and North Sefton. In our family of schools at this point in our growth, we have three secondary schools and two primary schools, a Teaching School Alliance and a SCITT.
In the past two years we have taken over the leadership of two of our secondary schools, both in challenging circumstances, and the impact has been rapid and significant. We are keen to welcome other schools into our Trust and to ensure we have the capacity to continue to intervene where we are needed most.
Our Trust has been further strengthened by the addition of a large primary school, which enables us to embrace the all through nature of education. It provides us with rich opportunities to learn from and with each other.
Our family ethos is tangible; we work as a team; we want the best for everyone. But we are also staunch in our commitment to doing this in a way which protects the wellbeing of our staff and our students; our commitment to reducing workload is non-negotiable. Our behaviour policies enable teachers to teach and students to learn and we strive to ensure that our schools are communities of joy, learning and teamwork. We seek to thrive; individually, together, in our classrooms, staffrooms, schools and across the Trust
