Theale Green School is part of the Activate Learning Education Trust consisting of seven secondary schools. We have a rich history in both Sport and the Arts, as important contributors to every young person’s development. However, we have now established a rich and broad curriculum which reaches into every corner of our school. We pride ourselves on our vision of being the School of Choice for our local community, and through valuing all relationships within our community, ensuring that every person has a voice and striving to be a Well School, we are well on our way to our vision being reality.

Student and staff well-being is at the heart of our school and we are constantly challenging ourselves within the Leadership Team to make a tangible and positive difference to the lives of all who study and work here. We are working to develop a culture where all voices are heard and feedback is welcomed and valued, and we are looking forward to finding the candidate who is motivated by being part of this culture. Despite the strength of our Trust, we value external engagement and we have strong relationships with the Local Authority, a variety of national bodies, but most especially, our community. A focus on continuing professional development for staff is valued by everyone, and staff are welcoming the increased opportunity to influence the direction of the school.
