CEO WELCOME
Welcome to Corpus Christi Catholic Academy Trust. As CEO I have been in the privileged position of leading the Trust since September 2018, during which time we have successfully stabilised the Trust finances, centralised the HR, finance and IT services functions, and made good progress on our school improvement journey.
We pride ourselves on the achievements of all the members of our fellowship of schools, working together to secure the best possible outcomes for the children and young people in our care. In an address to an Italian association of Catholic teachers, educators and school administrators, Pope Francis called on teachers to reach out to and "love with greater intensity" the children on "the peripheries'" of their schools; those who do not like studying, who are labelled as "difficult", who have disabilities, come from other countries or face other problems and disadvantages. To me, we can respond best to the Pope's plea by working as a collective, rather than acting unilaterally; making key decisions together when setting budgets, determining content of the curriculum through discussion, deciding who to employ as a panel, reaching consensus on key priorities etc.
I know that some of you will be reading my welcome to help you decide whether to apply for a job in our Trust. If you are interested in joining us as either an individual or a school, it is likely to be the right decision if you genuinely believe that by working collaboratively, each school benefits from others' strengths and expertise within the Trust and practically from services provided and procured centrally. Please do join us if you like working with people and want to belong to a dynamic, faith-driven organisation, whose focus is to serve the children, young people and families within their communities.
WHY WORK WITH US?
The Corpus Christi Catholic Academy Trust is committed to providing everyone who works for us with opportunities for professional growth, open and collaborative communication and to work in a vibrant and welcoming environment with wonderful students, supportive staff, governors and parents. All of our schools work closely together to share ideas and to ensure all staff have the opportunity to enhance and develop their career.
WHAT WE OFFER
CPD
We are committed to providing Continuing Professional Development and give all staff the opportunity to gain further qualifications. Teaching Staff are encouraged to undertake NPQML/NPQSL qualifications. CPD also extends to our Support Staff and recently a number of Teaching Assistants across the Trust have started either an Early Years Educator Level 3 Apprenticeship or a Teaching Apprenticeship which enables them to gain a PGCE with QTS. We also have a library of short eLearning courses and fully accredited qualifications that all of our employees can access which are self-paced, enabling you to access training at times that suit you and at your own speed.
Opportunities for Career Progression
All vacancies in any of our schools are advertised across the whole Trust, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to experience working in a new environment which can result in promotion, personal development and professional growth. Collaboration We work collaboratively with our family of schools, the Diocese of Shrewsbury and the wider community. This has included delivering school-toschool support to schools in difficulty. This work gives staff opportunities to develop their CVs whilst ensuring we fulfil our Catholic mission by providing a service to society and working in partnership with others.
Support Staff Appraisal
We have adopted an open, honest and supportive system to ensure all support staff are regularly appraised, have access to appropriate training and support and have the opportunity to express an interest in developing their career.
Confidential Support
Staff and their immediate families have access to an Employee Assistance Programme which is a free 24-hour helpline and online Health Portal which gives access to qualified and experienced counsellors. We recognise that balancing the pressures of work with the needs of a home life can sometimes be challenging. Our Employee Assistance Programme can provide advice and support on a range of issues including: family, debt management and lifestyle.
Supporting your Well-Being
We are committed to supporting the well-being of all our staff and have recently introduced a Health Cash Plan. Staff can access a range of benefits which includes covering the costs towards optical, dental, alternative therapy treatments and health screening. The scheme also gives you access to discounted gym memberships. We also offer the opportunity to receive a flu vaccination each year and a range of free refreshments are also made available across our Schools.
Eyecare Voucher Scheme
If as part of your role, you use a PC or laptop daily for more than an hour and have decided to opt out of the Health Cash Plan, you will be able to request a voucher to pay for an eye test. Should you then be prescribed VDU glasses, we contribute towards the cost of those glasses.
Generous Pension Scheme
Automatic enrolment into the Teachers’ Pension Scheme with 23.68% employer contributions, or to the Local Government Pension Scheme for Support Staff (one of the most competitive on the market, with employer contributions of above 20% in most cases).
Development Plans
This is an exciting time in our journey, and we are constantly seeking to grow and develop our offering to staff. Work is underway to extend training opportunities and the employee benefits we provide.
Terms and Conditions
We are committed to following nationally agreed terms and conditions of pay for both Teachers and Support Staff on an on-going basis
