Opportunities for your own learning and development are seen in all parts of school life and professional development through the trust is plentiful and high quality.

- Challenge and support: we grow quality teachers by offering a supportive and collaborative environment where you'll receive ongoing professional development and coaching to excel in your career. You’ll work hard but develop as a teacher and make a huge impact in an area of high-deprivation.
- Community: we are an integral part of the Oldmixon area and community and your class will no doubt become part of this too, whether that be through the Mini Police project, singing in the local area, litter picks and so on.
