We are a diverse multi-academy trust delivering excellent educational provision for pupils in primary and secondary schools across the North West. We are ambitious about the future, and passionate about ensuring young people have access to the very best opportunities and life chances. We believe we have the knowledge and skills to influence the education system to make this a reality for all pupils. We have 14 schools across the North West and each school is strengthened by the additional support we can provide as a larger multi-academy trust. This is because by working together, we have more resources to effect greater change for our pupils and the wider communities we serve. We are looking forward to embarking on this journey and working together to deliver on our promises to pupils, staff, and the wider region. With best wishes, **Dan Thomas, Chief Executive** ![](https://files.schudio.com/the-learning-alliance/imagecache/720x560c/menu/Home_2.jpg) ### About us [overview](https://tlptrust.com/about-us/overview) ![](https://files.schudio.com/the-learning-alliance/imagecache/720x560c/menu/3G4A5412.jpg) ### Our schools [tlp-schools](https://tlptrust.com/our-schools/tlp-schools) ![](https://files.schudio.com/the-learning-alliance/imagecache/720x560c/menu/Home_1.png) ### Our People [our-approach-to-our-people](https://tlptrust.com/our-people/our-approach-to-our-people) ![](https://files.schudio.com/the-learning-alliance/imagecache/720x560c/menu/IMG-20240429-WA0004.jpg) ### Governance [governance](https://tlptrust.com/governance) ![](https://files.schudio.com/the-learning-alliance/imagecache/720x560c/menu/BFPS_web_photo_1_TLA.jpg) ### The Executive Team [the-executive-team](https://tlptrust.com/about-us/the-executive-team) ![](https://files.schudio.com/the-learning-alliance/imagecache/720x560c/menu/SIS_.png) ### Trustees [trustees](https://tlptrust.com/governance/trustees) ## [**Latest** News](https://tlptrust.com/news) ![Image of Sir William Stanier School's Attendance among England’s Top 10% Most Improved ](https://files.schudio.com/the-learning-alliance/imagecache/720x440c/news/SWS_attendance.png) 21 October 2026 ### [Sir William Stanier School's Attendance among England’s Top 10% Most Improved ](https://tlptrust.com/news/2026-10-21-sir-william-stanier-school-s-attendance-among-england-s-top-10-most-improved) Staff, students and families at SWS are celebrating after the school was recognised as one of the Top 10% Most Improved Secondary Schools in England for attendance throughout 2026/26 academic year.
