We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and appointments will be subject to rigorous safeguarding checks including enhanced DBS and references. The postholder must share our commitment to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. Candidates who have been successfully shortlisted will be asked to complete a self-declaration to confirm any (non-protected) criminal disclosures or information that would make them unsuitable to work with children.
The post is exempt from the rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the amendments to the Exceptions Order 1975, 2013 and 2020. Which means that when applying for certain jobs and activities certain spent convictions and cautions are ‘protected’, so they do not need to be disclosed to employers, and if they are disclosed, employers cannot take them into account. Further information about filtering offences can be found in the DBS filtering guide.
We aim to recruit the very best staff and welcome those from all backgrounds, communities and faiths (including non-faith individuals). Inspire Education Trust is clear about its responsibilities in embracing diversity and ensuring we recruit people of a high calibre based on their skills, abilities, and experience. As such, we welcome applications from a diverse range of candidates.

Following recommendations from Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) for an additional pre-employment check, with effect of 1st September 2022, please note an online search may form part of this recruitment process.

At Inspire Education Trust we are passionate about making a
difference to the lives of our pupils. They are at the heart of
everything we do, and we strive to inspire all learners, and want all
our schools to be the best they can be and for each and every child,
to discover the skills, abilities, talents and interests that lie within them.
We believe in working in partnership, enabling us to ensure all children and pupils
achieve their full potential. Our schools know the impact that working collaboratively
can bring.
Our schools have a desire to question, change and innovate to ensure that what they
provide enables our children to become successful learners, confident individuals and
responsible citizens.
At the same time, we recognise the importance for each school to retain and promote
their individual identity. Every school has its own context and challenges. This is why we
encourage our member schools to lead and manage in a way that preserves that
individual identity and responds to the specific needs of their children and community.
The combination of autonomy and collaboration across key areas of leadership and
management, underpinned by shared values and best practice is what makes our
schools special.
