What we aim to achieve

The Leeds Learning Alliance (LLA) serves the city of Leeds and its communities. We have the highest levels of ambition for every learner in the communities that we serve (not just those that learn with us now). We believe those ambitions will be achieved by using our resources generously, ethically and equitably, by working cooperatively, promoting excellence, social justice, creativity, opportunity, peace and cohesion.

how we will do it

The LLA prioritises inclusion by supporting communities, strengthening and broadening leadership, innovating, using and promoting research, developing skills and performance, improving access to employment, sharing expertise, developing people and advocating for learners that face disadvantage and discrimination.

We promote digital and technological expertise. We champion the poorest, environmental regeneration and we are anti-racist.

Strategic Plan 2022-2027

High Challenge and High Support

Our members have come together to bring our commonwealth of resources to reduce inequality by improving outcomes for all the learners of the communities that we serve by being: collaborative, inclusive and ambitious.

Together we promote our city’s aims as expressed in the Inclusive Growth Strategy.

A NETWORK OF NETWORKS

The LLA is a partnership of organisations that operates as a “network of networks,” characterised by the interplay of various network types with the ability to evolve in response to changing interaction patterns.

LLA networks have emerged following three phases. First, through connecting events (eg. LLA Leaders’ Breakfasts, Conferences) a partner develops connections with others and identifies a shared interest/dilemma/question. Secondly, an invitation to partners to join sense making activities (eg. roundtables) to generate knowledge about the dilemma and identify goals. Thirdly, a facilitator chairs the network to deliver ongoing activity for as long as shared goals are delivered.
