Recognising strengths and allowing our staff to grow.
We strongly believe that the reason for our success is the people who work for us, at all levels, both in teaching and support. We therefore invest in them because they make a difference. Our staff seek educational excellence, have the highest of standards, and contribute to the ongoing success of an exceptional educational network.
We know that if colleagues are not nurtured they will not stay. We are committed to providing quality training and support to every member of staff. Our staff are all individuals and they all deserve to be treated as individuals by recognising their strengths and supporting them.

‘Future peace of mind’ Staff Pensions
Simply put, your pension is the way that you, your employer and the government help you to save for your future. Each time you get paid, you pay contributions towards the cost of your pension. Your employer contributes towards the cost and the government also helps out through tax relief, as you don’t pay tax on pension contributions. All employees have access to either the Local Government Pensions Scheme or Teachers’ Pension.
