Karen Hunter's Company Details
The Leading Learning Trust came into being on the 1st May 2016, and is a charitable company limited by guarantee. Like other trusts, we are funded directly by the Department for Education. Our trust consists of two schools: Selwyn Primary School (an Ofsted-rated Outstanding school, which is also the trust's sponsor) and Portway Primary School, both located in Plaistow, in the London Borough of Newham. We are at the heart of a wonderfully rich and culturally diverse community that represents over 20 cultural groups and nearly 40 different languages. Our schools are fully inclusive; Selwyn Primary School is also Newham's resourced provision for deaf and hearing impaired pupils.Our newly appointed CEO, Emma Nicholls (previously Executive Head teacher at Selwyn) leads the trust and reports to a board of trustees. However, our schools are rooted in their communities and as such, each has a Head teacher and a local governing body. Our Head teachers - Helen Mawer, who is based at Selwyn Primary School, and Jacqui Waine, who is based at Portway Primary School - work closely with Emma and with their respective local governing bodies. Our chair of trustees is Steve Loganathan.
