We provide exceptional education to 8,000 children across Bedfordshire, from nursery age to advanced level study.
Everything we do is driven by our values: to always put children first, to collaborate with each other to add value and compete to improve, to provide community-based provision, and to have the courage to be compassionate.
We share a vision to grow the BEST in everyone – and that includes our staff. We aim to recruit, retain and develop the highest quality workforce.
We are able to offer our staff a fantastic range of benefits, including great opportunities for career development and training.
Full details can be found in our BEST People staff benefits brochure.
