Mission
and values
Our mission
is simple: to transform the lives of children and young people from our community
through excellent education in a safe, inclusive and supportive learning
environment.
Everything
we do is guided by our values:
Ambition · Inclusivity · Collaboration · Excellence
We are proud
to serve a richly diverse community where every individual is valued and
encouraged to make positive contributions to each school. All our schools
share a common goal which is to provide excellent academic education and
inclusive, personal support to all of our pupils. We value pupils’
diversity and actively teach and encourage all students to make positive
contributions so that they become responsible, independent and successful
members of society. Each school has its own identity and ethos, but all share
these common values and purpose. We make sure that pupils leave with the
best possible skills and qualifications they need to support them to shape
their future.
We know this
is only possible because of our great staff. Through high-quality
teaching and a strong culture of support, we invest as much energy in
developing and caring for our employees as we do in our pupils.
Why
Work With Us?
- Professional growth at every
stage: From
induction to leadership programmes, and apprenticeships, we invest in your
career. Federation-wide INSET days bring colleagues together to share best
practice and collaborate.
- A strong, supportive community: With our schools working
closely together, staff benefit from shared resources, expertise, and
opportunities across phases.
- Inclusive, ambitious culture: We celebrate diversity and
encourage everyone to bring their whole selves to work.
- Wellbeing matters: Our staff wellbeing offer
includes health cover, counselling, and flexible family-friendly policies
— because we know great teaching depends on a healthy, happy team.
We believe in fostering a work environment that supports work-life balance. We are open to flexible working arrangements, flexible hours, and part-time opportunities.
‘I appreciate the work-life balance and flexibility.’ - Staff
‘My line manager puts a lot of trust in me, and allows me
flexibility in the way I work so I can be as productive as possible. I’m
treated with respect and I feel valued.’ - Staff
