Information on the Bishop Wilkinson Catholic Education Trust.

St Leonard’s joined the Bishop Wilkinson Catholic Education Trust in April 2020. Bishop Wilkinson CET is a large Trust that includes both primary and secondary schools across County Durham, Northumberland, Gateshead and Sunderland Local Authorities. There are 5 Catholic Secondary schools within our Trust. Full details of the Trust can be found on our website.

At Bishop Wilkinson Catholic Education Trust, we recognise that each individual member of our community is created in God’s image with unique talents and abilities.

We nurture each person through loving relationships and rich daily experiences centred on the teachings of Christ. We believe that humanity is a gift that we receive through others and that our relationships unlock the unique potential in each person. As such, we affirm the dignity of each individual and our values underpin everything we do across every school, with and for each student and member of staff.
