About Flying High Trust

At Flying High, we believe in making every day count. Founded in 2012, we are a multi-academy trust of 35 primary schools across Derbyshire, Nottingham City, and Nottinghamshire, united by a shared vision to provide exceptional education for every child.

Our values—unique, exceptional, and sustainable—guide everything we do. Schools join our trust to strive for excellence while supporting others on the same journey. Through collaboration, innovation, and continuous improvement, we empower our staff and students to reach their full potential.

We are committed to meaningful partnerships, where schools retain their unique identity while benefiting from collective expertise and shared best practices. Our culture is one of support, ambition, and a relentless drive to ensure that every child thrives.

At Flying High, we invest in exceptional teacher training, outstanding CPD, and inspirational leadership development—because we believe that great schools are built by great people. If you’re passionate about education and want to be part of a team that is shaping the future, we’d love to hear from you.
