This is an exciting opportunity to help shape the future of professional development for our Trust. If you’re passionate about developing people, driving improvement, working collaboratively in a values-led organisation and you have the relevant experience - we want to hear from you.

This policy aims to assess new employees' alignment with our culture, teaching standards, and student needs. It is designed to foster success; with regular evaluations and support mechanisms in place, helping us to identify and nurture talent.

We value diversity and welcome applications from all, including those with protected characteristics under the Equality Act. Flexible working will be considered for all roles deemed suitable.
