WINDSOR LEARNING PARTNERSHIP

What WINDSOR LEARNING PARTNERSHIP does

Windsor Learning Partnership (WLP) is a state-funded Multi-Academy Trust (MAT) structured as a company limited by guarantee and registered in England (Company Number 9409109), operating six schools in the Windsor, Berkshire area: three first schools (Clewer Green C of E First School, Dedworth Green First School, Oakfield First School), one middle school (Dedworth Middle School), and two upper schools (The Windsor Boys' School and Windsor Girls' School). The trust delivers education from early years through sixth form under an earned-autonomy model in which individual schools retain their identity while sharing a central services layer for HR, finance, governance, and strategic leadership. Revenue is derived almost entirely from public funding — primarily the Dedicated Schools Grant and related government streams — and statutory schooling is provided free at point of use; no tuition fees are charged.

The technology layer is conventional and undifferentiated: the trust runs on PrimarySite CMS for web presence, Matomo for analytics, reCaptcha for form security, Google Translate for accessibility, TryBooking for events ticketing, MyNewTerm for recruitment, and standard embed tools (YouTube, Twitter feed, Google Maps). The 'Multi-Academy Trust School Network' is described internally as an integration-and-interoperability differentiator, but this refers to administrative coordination across schools rather than a proprietary technology product. The noted '12 employees' figure corresponds to the central team only and should not be interpreted as total headcount; total workforce across the six schools would be in the hundreds.

The operating model is community-oriented: governance is split between a Board of Trustees and Local Governing Boards at each school, leadership is led by CEO Gavin Henderson with executive heads for primary and secondary tiers, and external engagement spans charity partnerships (Well Windsor, Thames Hospice, Eton Excelsior Rowing Club), a transport arrangement (Fargo Coaches), and active outreach across Twitter and Instagram. Notable non-academic outcomes include multiple national rowing championships via the Windsor Boys' School Boat Club and an MBE awarded to the Director of Music for services to education.
