For a large multi-academy trust like ARK, delivering consistent, high-quality PSHE education across every school is no small challenge. Lyndsay Harris, from ARK Multi-Academy Trust, explains why Life Lessons became their strategic PSHE partner of choice – and how the Life Lessons PSHE curriculum helped move the trust from varied, inconsistent provision to a fully aligned PSHE programme across the whole organisation. The impact on students, teachers, and the trust’s strategic objectives has been significant.

Why ARK Multi-Academy Trust chose Life Lessons as their PSHE curriculum partner

Before partnering with Life Lessons, the quality of PSHE across ARK’s schools was inconsistent – varying from school to school with no unified standard. That changed when Life Lessons came on board as the trust’s strategic PSHE and RSHE curriculum provider. The Life Lessons curriculum quickly became the standout PSHE programme for the trust, directly supporting ARK’s strategic objective of improving PSHE quality at scale across all their schools.

What sets Life Lessons apart, according to Lyndsay, is the combination of a highly responsive team, a fully inclusive PSHE curriculum, and resources that are always current – reflecting the real experiences and realities of young people today. The team’s deep expertise in both PSHE and RSHE has made Life Lessons a true strategic partner, not just a curriculum provider. For a multi-academy trust striving to deliver outstanding PSHE education, that level of expertise and responsiveness makes all the difference.

“Life Lessons has been the standout PSHE curriculum for our trust – it’s made a huge difference.”

Why Lyndsay Harris would recommend Life Lessons to other Multi-Academy Trusts

In this second video, Lyndsay speaks directly to other MAT leaders who are looking to raise the standard of PSHE and RSHE across their schools. Her recommendation is unequivocal. The work ARK has done with Life Lessons has transformed the PSHE experience for every student across the trust – improving outcomes, aligning provision, and giving teachers the expert-led, up-to-date resources they need to deliver PSHE with confidence.

For any multi-academy trust serious about improving the quality of PSHE education across their schools, Lyndsay’s advice is clear: Life Lessons is where to start.

“The work we’ve done with Life Lessons has transformed the PSHE experience for all of our students.”
