As we approach the end of this academic year, we look back on the last term to highlight the many successes of our students and school community.
Moorlands Learning Trust (MLT) was formed on July 1st 2017, when Ilkley Grammar School converted its single academy trust to multi-academy trust (MAT) status. The Skipton Academy joined in 2019 as our first partner academy, and during 2023/24 we welcomed Ashlands Primary, Burley Oaks Primary, Eastburn Primary, Menston Primary and Nidderdale High School. In 2025, Benton Park School became the first secondary school in Leeds to join the Trust and in the same year, Talbot Primary School joined the Trust as the first primary school from Leeds.
The Skipton Academy is a part of Moorlands Learning Trust, a company incorporated in England and Wales, limited by guarantee with registered company number 07663864 Registered office address: Cowpasture Road, Ilkley, West Yorkshire LS29 8TR
