From the The Galfrid School
The goal of United Learning is to provide the entire country's children and teenagers with a top-notch education. We are one of the leading educational institutions in the country because to our combined enrollment of over 60,000 students and employment of over 8,000 workers, including over 4,000 teachers. We closely follow the research that identifies what boosts young people's chances of success, put it into practise in our everyday work, and aim to continually improve our schools. Together, we can offer staff and students more than any one school could do on its own. We already believe that our organisation has the strongest relationships and most useful interactions between independent and public schools in the country, which is advantageous to all of the participating schools. Our strategy is supported by a sense of moral obligation and a commitment to working in the best interests of young people everywhere while supporting colleagues in their pursuit of excellence and acting with integrity in all our interactions both inside and outside the organisation. We collaborate as a single organisation to honour both traditions and blend the best features of the independent and public sectors. We believe that each of our schools should be distinctive and should strive hard to establish its own distinctive features and identity because we are organisations that promote service, compassion, and giving. This ethos is a reflection of our Christian heritage in schools that are fully inclusive and accept and respect students and staff of all faiths and none.
