Our Schools
The schools working together across Harrogate and the rural north of the county
A network of partner schools
The Harrogate & Rural Teaching School Alliance is built on partnerships between schools. Primary, secondary and special schools contribute their experience, and each school benefits from the knowledge held across the wider network. Partnership means that no school has to solve every challenge alone.
Shared learning across phases
Our partner schools meet regularly to share approaches to curriculum design, assessment and pastoral care. Teachers from different phases learn from one another, which helps pupils move more smoothly between primary and secondary education.
Rural schools, local strengths
Schools in rural areas often face distinct challenges, from recruiting specialist staff to reaching professional networks. The alliance helps these schools connect with colleagues nearby, share resources and build leadership capacity within their own communities.
Digital support for every school
Through North Yorkshire County Council Schools ICT, partner schools can access expert advice on information and communications technology. Whether a school is reviewing its network, planning a new website or introducing digital learning tools, support is available that is grounded in the realities of school life.
