Our staff are both dedicated and highly skilled and contribute to a very nurturing and kind school. We are proud to have been awarded the Trauma Informed Schools award, and building relationships with students and their families is central to our practice. Trauma Informed Practice has informed the development of our behaviour policy and practice, and any successful candidates will be able to demonstrate they share these values.
