United Learning

Embley is part of United Learning, a well-established group of more than one hundred independent schools and academies.

Being part of United Learning has many benefits for us as a school. We have more financial security than any individual school can achieve alone. This means that we are better able to deal with challenges, and we face less risk.

Working together also saves us money, which in turn means we can invest more in teaching and learning.

Centralised United Learning professional services including finance, estates, HR and IT work in tandem with our staff to ensure we benefit from seamless professional support at a lower cost than we could achieve by ourselves.

We have access to specialist resources to support teaching and learning. Across many subject areas, we utilise the United Learning curriculum which is expertly crafted and based on the latest evidence-based research and pedagogy. Our teachers benefit from a comprehensive CPD programme to aid their development at every stage of their career.

Our academic departments have access to highly-qualified subject experts and every teacher has the opportunity to join a national network where they can share ideas and best practice for their subject. Each school benefits from the expertise of an experienced director, themselves a former head, who acts as a trusted advisor on our continuing improvement. Heads across the group meet regularly to help drive innovation. All of this support has a direct and positive impact on outcomes for our pupils.

Our school has been part of United Learning since 2005. You can read more about United Learning here.
