About the Trust
Thank you for considering joining our trust. We are privileged to be the CEOs of the Brighter Futures Learning Partnership Trust (BFLPT) and to be working with like‐minded headteachers, leaders, staff and board members who understand how important education is to life chances and social mobility. The BFLPT Board is determined to see a high‐performing multi‐academy Trust which delivers exceptional and enriching learning experiences for all its children, young people and staff. We believe that by working collaboratively, we will create an educational platform on which to build the strong foundations needed for educational success.
There could not be a better time
to join our Trust, which includes a diverse and successful range of schools;
four Doncaster primary schools, an infant school, an 11-16 secondary school
(Hungerhill) and Doncaster University Technical College. Hungerhill School
benefitted from being a Teaching and National Support school for many years;
its legacy of strong collaboration is still recognised today both locally and
nationally with strong student outcomes above national averages. Doncaster UTC
opened in 2020 in a state-of-the-art building which supports the strong
employer led curriculum designed to create engineers and technologists of the
future. The school has already won several national and local awards and is
recognised by Baker Dearing Trust as being one of its flagship schools. More
recently we have been awarded a second Free School Bid, and the Trust will open
a second Doncaster UTC specialising in Green Technologies and Health Care
Sciences. We are excited about the
future and the many expanding professional development opportunities for our
staff. In September 2021 we implemented a
new Primary Knowledge Curriculum in all primary and infant schools, and all our
schools are heavily invested in the development of a mathematics mastery
curriculum and lead on a number of projects supported by the South Yorkshire
Maths Hubs. We are extremely proud that our
Ofsted reports have acknowledged that all our schools are good or better. The
reports demonstrate that our schools are delivering better student/pupil
outcomes by working together, sharing leadership and teacher knowledge and
resources. All of this, of course, could not be achieved without our strong
body of exceptionally hard-working and committed support staff. This has been
testament to the strong investment in staff and pupils; our standards are high,
but we take the investment in our staff very seriously. We are also part of a network of
national schools who are reshaping their curriculum, drawing on research and
cognitive based science which will ensure all our children make accelerated
progress. We employ a number of Ofsted trained consultants across the Trust who
support our subject leaders to design and shape the best learning experiences
for our young people and in doing so, we are providing very bespoke support and
training for teaching staff who want to invest in themselves. We are very proud
of our story so far. Our robust teacher development
programmes and associate staff performance management systems allow for
internal recognition and support to help encourage colleagues to thrive and
develop within roles. We are also very clear about reasonable, professional
expectations, so that colleagues understand what is required of them, and are
confident in their ability to deliver. We also have many associate staff
who are being supported to develop themselves through additional professional
courses as we believe this is the hallmark of an outstanding Trust. The successful candidate will be
based at Hungerhill School but may be required to work elsewhere within the
Trust, as may reasonably be required by the Headteacher/Principal, CEO for the
discharge of their duties.
Further details and an online application form is available through https://mynewterm.com (CV’s will not be accepted for this post).
Interviews will be held on a date to be confirmed
