The Academies for Character and Excellence has seventeen Primary Schools and four Pre-schools across Devon & Somerset making up a dynamic and innovative learning organisation.
We live our mission and return to this constantly to help guide every action. At the heart of all we do is the pursuit of excellence; we want to grow an exceptional trust, comprised of excellent schools. We are achieving this through our shared core values of collaboration, community, Integrity, equity, and of course uncompromising excellence.
We are truly collaborative, and we work together within and across our schools to ensure that all our children and members of staff achieve their potential. Together we work to create a full and rich curriculum offer allowing everyone to flourish - we translate our vision of excellence into our everyday practice. We are proud of our outcomes, but we aspire to achieve more than just academic excellence for our children. We also want our children to become healthy thinkers, curious explorers, caring citizens, knowledgeable participants, and confident individuals.
We aim to serve our communities, and our schools make every effort to connect with families, local community groups, and organisations to ensure that our children and families are nurtured, supported and provided with opportunities through our schools.
We are looking to appoint a well-organised, reliable and competent person to become our School Administrator at Brixham C of E Primary. Can you combine the skills of being organised and efficient with a positive outlook and friendly disposition? Do you enjoy working as part of a team as well as independently?
