The Spencer Academies Trust
About The Spencer Academies Trust
Established in 2011, Spencer has a well-established reputation for teaching excellence with some of the most successful and highest performing academies in the East Midlands region. Our mission is to provide high quality education and deliver the best possible outcomes for children and young people and our vision is to be an exceptional Trust, which provides an outstanding education for local children.
We have a dedicated and talented staff team and through partnership and collaborative working share expertise, best practice and resources to make sure that our students benefit from the best possible educational experience, and our staff enjoy a positive, purposeful working environment with clear opportunities for career progression.
Spencer Academies Trust is an educational charity, Academy Trust and Sponsor of Academies. We have over 18000 children and young people in our academies and employ more than 2600 teachers, leaders and educational support professionals across the East Midlands. We aspire to be a leading regional high performing Trust, with a national reputation for excellence.
We currently have 18 primary academies, 8 secondary academies and one primary aged special school in our family of schools. In the coming months we will be on-boarding new member academies and working towards the design, build and opening of a brand new state-of-the-art secondary school. Spencer Academies share values and belief, and all benefit from the collaboration, partnership and added value that comes with being a member of our Trust. SAT also is a registered provider of Apprenticeships, leads the Derby Research School and is designated as a Regional Teaching School Hub.
Delivering a high-quality education starts with a high-quality team of educators. We are always looking for motivated, collaborative people to join our team and offer a competitive suite of benefits to ensure that you are supported in your work with us. Our staff are encouraged to continually take on new challenges, so we offer a wide range of professional development resources and opportunities.
Spencer academies share an ambition to deliver results that compete with the very highest performing schools in the country and deliver a curriculum for students that is underpinned by breadth, opportunity and quality: one that seeks to give young people the opportunity to develop into well-rounded global citizens that believe they can influence positive change in the world.

Working at a Spencer Academy you have access to a broad suite of resources, comprehensive CPD opportunities and a network of unparalleled support. Our employees are the leaders who implement our vision of providing outstanding education for local children, and when they succeed, we all do.
