What the school offers its staff
The school benefits from excellent leaders and a wider staff team committed to the principles within the school’s overall vision. Northleaze has developed a strong curriculum which staff deliver with skill in an outstanding learning environment. Northleaze has a strong behaviour curriculum and pupils’ behaviour supports them to make strong progress. This is reflected in pupil results which are well above national (many subjects in the top quartile) and some of the strongest in the Trust. Leaders at school are generous to share their school with others and regularly contribute to Trust activities.
Commitment to safeguarding
The Lighthouse Schools Partnership is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all in its community to share this commitment. Suitability to work with children and young people will form part of the selection process. As part of the shortlisting process an online search will be carried out. All appointments will be subject to vetting, including an enhanced DBS check.
We are also committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace and welcome applications from all suitably qualified candidates, particularly those from underrepresented groups.
