What the school offers its staff

The school is part of the University of Chichester Multi-Academy Trust family. Each academy has a unique identity, but a shared belief in creating a positive and enriching environment, where all staff feel valued and proud to be part of the Trust. There are a range of professional development opportunities available within our school and as part of the Trust.

As part of our commitment to staff wellbeing and delivering high-quality education, we have introduced a two-week October half-term across all our schools. This initiative is already making a positive impact – giving staff and pupils a valuable break during the long autumn term, reducing absence through illness, and supporting overall well-being. It also brings greater consistency across our Trust, creating a more connected and efficient way of working.

It’s just one example of how we prioritise our people and create a working environment where everyone can thrive.

At the University of Chichester Academy Trust, we believe that diversity drives creativity, innovation and excellence. We are committed to providing equality of opportunity, fostering an inclusive culture and welcome applications from individuals who are underrepresented within our workforce, including people from Black, Asian and minority ethnic backgrounds, disabled people, LGBTQI+ individuals and women (particularly for senior leadership roles).
