CEO Welcome
Welcome to the website of Primitas Learning Partnership, a Multi-Academy Trust which prides itself on being a close-knit family of schools serving the communities of Burntwood, Lichfield and Rugeley in Staffordshire.
The eight schools currently within the Primitas family are:

Ridgeway Primary Academy (Primary)

We are incredibly proud to be a cross-phase Multi-Academy Trust incorporating both mainstream and special schools. This demonstrates our unwavering commitment to inclusion and provides us with an incredible wealth of educational expertise, which we harness and utilise for the benefit of our schools - and the wider education system - via our ambitious School Improvement Strategy.
All of our schools are intentionally located within a 20-minute drive of each other, thus ensuring that staff, resources and expertise can be shared effectively and efficiently. This proximity plays a vital role in ensuring that every school receives the high-quality, ongoing support needed to deliver and sustain high-quality educational provision.
And as we continue to grow, we are excited about our ongoing mission: helping as many children as possible gain the kind of education that they deserve - and need - in this complex, challenging and ever-changing world.
However, we are absolutely determined to make sure that our future growth and ambition do not cause us to compromise our mission, lose sight of our vision or dilute our values.
I hope you enjoy learning more about Primitas Learning Partnership through this website and I am confident that you will gain a clear sense of the passion, purpose and collaboration that underpin our work. If you would like to find out more, please do not hesitate to contact us. We look forward to hearing from you.
