Welcome to the Link Academy Trust. We are a family of twenty‑three primary schools rooted in the diverse communities of the South Hams, Dartmoor, East Devon and Mid Devon. Each school has its own character and history, yet we are united by a shared purpose: to help every child and every adult flourish.
Our Vision
Flourishing schools for all at the heart of our communities. “Life in all its fullness.” – John 10:10
This vision shapes everything we do. It reflects our Christian foundation and our belief that every person is uniquely valued, capable of growth and deserving of opportunity.
Our Values
Belonging – We nurture relationships so that everyone feels seen, included and supported.
Curiosity – We encourage ambition, creativity and a love of learning that lasts a lifetime.
Collaboration – We work openly and purposefully together, sharing expertise and celebrating collective success.
Across our four clusters, our schools benefit from being part of a strong, connected Trust while remaining deeply embedded in their local communities. Our size allows us to know every child well, while our shared systems and professional networks ensure high standards and continual improvement.
Education is always evolving, and we are committed to staying forward‑looking, reflective and responsive. Our long‑term strategy focuses on excellence in teaching, rich and meaningful curriculum experiences, and the wellbeing of every child and member of staff. Whatever changes come, our vision and values remain constant—guiding us to act with integrity, compassion and ambition.
If you would like to learn more about our Trust or visit one of our schools, we would be delighted to welcome you.
