What Makes Us Special
The culture at Learning Links is really what makes the organisation such a special place to be a part of. It’s inclusive, nurturing, respectful, fun and truly something that our team feel excited and proud to contribute to.
We are a strengths-based organisation powered by Clifton Strengths from Gallup. Strengths-profiling is a key part of our onboarding process and we use the insights from our individual profiles to embrace each staff member’s unique qualities and differences, support each other to achieve our goals and strive to work together in the best possible way.
We have an amazing variety of people, all dedicated to our vision, and love catching up each year at our Staff Development Day and Christmas Party.
