Why choose Milton Park?

Make a lasting impact: not only will you play a pivotal role in shaping the lives of children, nurturing their curiosity and igniting their passion for learning, but also the wider school community. We are a strong team and work closely with our colleagues from around the academy-trust to expand and share our knowledge and expertise.

Continual improvement: there is always capacity and room for improvement. Your creativity is welcome to help us in finding different routes for fulfilling our potential. Opportunities for your own learning and development are seen in all parts of school life and are not just limited to going on courses. Professional development through the trust is plentiful and high quality.

History and tradition: Milton Park’s history and tradition are important to our ethos. Children gain a good sense of belonging and responsibility for where they live.

Fully inclusive: a significant proportion of pupils will have special educational needs at some time in their school career. Some of these pupils may require additional support throughout their time in school, whilst others may need specific intervention for a brief period to help overcome more short-term needs. We understand this and have opened a SEND and ASD resource base on-site to support local children.

Heritage and community: we have been part of the community for over 100 years 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. School fairs, performances, art events, and work in the community become shared experiences that strengthen bonds and raise funds for shared goals.

What we offer:

• a supportive and collaborative environment where all staff are valued and empowered to achieve their best and always be proud of who they are and what they do

• a central team with education specialists in school improvement, innovation and development, SEND and education welfare

• a diverse and inclusive group of academies where every child is valued and celebrated

• the opportunity to learn new things or develop existing skills with quality, ongoing professional development and a series of career pathways to help you grow and excel in your teaching career
