About Westcountry Schools Trust

  

Welcome to Westcountry Schools Trust

This is an extremely exciting time at WeST. Our Trust is currently formed of 26 schools in south Devon, Plymouth and Cornwall. However, it is highly likely that WeST will expand further in the coming year. We have made considerable investment in our school improvement capacity, and are excited about the further value we can bring and seeing the dividend of our work through even stronger outcomes.

WeST is an outward-looking, multifaceted trust that operates in partnership with the RSC Office, Teaching School Council, numerous schools, Higher Education Institutions and employers across the South West and beyond. Indeed, we are proud that within WeST there is a cohort 1 Teaching School that has been effectively supporting children beyond our own boundaries for nearly a decade.

WeST is a cross-phase family of local schools that share a commitment to improving the lives of young people in our community. Collaborative working with other schools in our trust offers many benefits for students and staff; sharing best practice in teaching and learning, curriculum collaboration, extra-curricular opportunities, staff development, finance and human resources, legal services, school improvement structures and governance arrangements. We also believe that by working together we can make our money go further and keep school funding focused on teaching and learning.

Whilst the educational landscape has changed significantly in recent years we have always kept abreast of developments and responded in a manner that ensures our children always receive a first-class education. This does not mean that we jump to the tune of the latest ‘fad’ or initiative, but filter through what we believe will improve and enrich the experience our students enjoy.

We have a pride in our schools, staff and children, and thrive on the constant challenge to do better. All our children are our collective responsibility.

At WeST we are committed to equality, diversity and inclusion, starting with ensuring that our recruitment process is inclusive and accessible for all.

Candidates are able to access support on the phone or via live chat when completing the online form in My New Term.  We recognise however that this option will not be suitable for everyone and so upon request we can provide job information and application forms in alternative formats to ensure equal opportunities, including printed packs, coloured paper and large print.  For more information on these options, please contact the local hiring School directly.
