Welcome
The Leatherseller's Federation of primary and secondary schools is committed to providing an excellent education for children from the local community in a safe, inclusive, supportive learning environment.
In our schools, everyone is valued and encouraged to make a positive contribution to school life. Pupils are supported to grow into responsible and independent members of society, leaving with the skills and qualifications they need to make informed choices about their future.
About Leathersellers’ Federation
The Leathersellers' Federation aims to provide an excellent education for children from the local community in a safe, supportive learning environment, and to teach them to become responsible, independent members of society.
The Leathersellers’ Federation of Schools, which encompasses approximately 3,000 pupils across Lewisham, was developed from the vision of Joseph Prendergast, who founded Lewisham’s first girls’ secondary school in 1890.
All of our schools share a common set of goals and values, united by a commitment to providing an outstanding education and service to our community.
- Ambition
- Inclusivity
- Collaboration
- Excellence
We transform the lives of children and young people in our local area by supporting them to achieve success through education.
The size and ethos of our schools mean we know each of our pupils personally, creating a safe, supportive and welcoming learning environment.
We are an inclusive Federation. We value and celebrate diversity and want everyone to feel they belong, make the most of their particular talents, and achieve success in all its different forms.
We expect our students to be aspirational and ambitious, academically, socially, creatively and in sport.
We value creativity and wellbeing alongside academic achievement.
We equip our students with the tools to make positive contributions and become responsible, independent, democratic citizens prepared for the future.
We value the individual character of our schools.
We aim to be the employer of choice for all staff by providing excellent research-led learning and development opportunities.
We are stronger together; all member schools contribute to and benefit from the collaboration and support of the Leathersellers’ Federation of Schools.
