About Us
The Active Learning Trust
We are a family of primary, secondary and special schools based across Suffolk and Cambridgeshire. Here at The Active Learning Trust we are hugely proud of our dedicated team of teaching and support staff, who are committed to improving outcomes for our children and young people.
We are also proud of our record of retaining and developing our staff. All of our schools have a focus on professional development and offer clear pathways to leadership for those who wish to pursue them. Our staff also benefit from being part of our network of diverse schools and we regularly bring together colleagues from different schools to share best practice and celebrate achievements.
Highfield Littleport Academy
Highfield Littleport Academy is an Area Special school for pupils aged 2 – 19, which focuses on each pupil’s individual needs and ensures they reach their maximum potential. We have the option of providing bespoke provision for pupils who would benefit from accessing elements of a mainstream education while still being placed within a special school and accessing the additional resources and expertise there. Highfield Littleport works in collaboration with Highfield Ely Academy through a shared leadership team and sharing resources across both schools. Highfield Littleport has a very good reputation in the local community and throughout Cambridgeshire, with places being well sought after. We aim to prepare our pupils well for the next step whether that is within our school or within the wider community. We pride ourselves in being able to equip our learners with the essential skills for adult life. Highfield Littleport started small and has grown over time, with a maximum roll of around 134. Currently there are 137 pupils on roll aged between Reception and Year 11.
