Across Rose Learning Trust, Lyfta has become part of everyday school life. Through protected Lyfta Time, within assemblies, around school values, and through curriculum mapping, each school has developed an approach that reflects its own community. A recent showcase at Crowle Primary Academy celebrated the work across the Trust, and highlighted that once strong foundations are in place, a different kind of conversation begins.

In a school where children arrive from many different backgrounds and life experiences, shared stories have become a powerful way to build connection. In this spotlight we’ll share how St Augustine's CE Primary School has embedded Lyfta across school life to help every child feel seen, valued and connected to the wider world.

Across Church of England schools, education is rooted in a shared commitment to helping every child grow in wisdom, dignity, and hope, within a community shaped by care and belonging. There are many strong overlaps with Lyfta’s pedagogical approaches. As pupils encounter real lives and perspectives, they are invited into discussions that nurture empathy, deepen their sense of dignity, and support their understanding of community and shared humanity. This blog explores these overlaps, making visible how Lyfta supports the distinctive ethos of CofE education and the priorities reflected in SIAMS. We have a growing community of over 100 Church of England Schools subscribed to Lyfta with over 70% choosing to subscribe for 3 years.
