St Teresa of Calcutta Catholic Academy Trust is seeking to appoint a dedicated and visionary Regional Improvement Officer to lead and implement our school improvement strategy across the secondary phase. This is a unique opportunity for experienced educational leaders to join a Trust committed to academic excellence and the Catholic ethos.
About Us
We currently comprise sixteen schools: thirteen primary and three secondary. By the end of the calendar year we expect to have a further secondary school join us on our journey.
Join us on our journey of growth and make a meaningful impact on the future of Catholic education across Bury, Bolton, Rochdale, Salford, and Wigan.
Our Mission

Our Values
One of Hope
Inspired by St Teresa of Calcutta, we are people of hope. We have a complete belief in the future we will build together. By offering our children, staff and schools’ opportunities to grow and flourish, we make aspiration and ambition a reality. Our people, just like St Teresa are relentless and fiercely ambitious. We will always reach for that which seems to be just out of our grasp.
One of Courage
As modelled for us by St Teresa of Calcutta, we will have the courage to do what is right. As a community, we will not shy away from making decisions that ensure our communities thrive. We will be brave in our actions. As a truly Catholic organisation this courage will be most apparent in how we collectively support the most vulnerable.
One of Innovation
St Teresa of Calcutta changed the world. Together, we will always be pursuing new ideas and best practice in all areas of our work. We will prepare our children and young people for the world that awaits them. A world which they will shape and change.

- Possess substantial experience in school improvement, either as a deputy headteacher/senior leader and/or through roles with Ofsted.
