Step inside The Skipton Academy and discover learning in action through our Open Evening and Open Door Tours.
Moorlands Learning Trust was formed on 1 July 2017 when Ilkley Grammar School converted from a single academy trust to a multi-academy trust. The Skipton Academy became our first partner academy in 2019, followed by the addition of Ashlands Primary School, Burley Oaks Primary School, Eastburn Primary School, Menston Primary School and Nidderdale High School during 2023/24. In 2025, Benton Park School and Talbot Primary School became our first schools in Leeds to join the Trust. On 1 September 2026, Ben Rhydding Primary School joined as our tenth school, further strengthening our family of schools across West and North Yorkshire.
