We value the wellbeing of our staff and aim to support colleagues throughout their working lives. Staff report high levels of wellbeing and attribute this to factors such as:

• Well designed, sequenced and resourced curricula which are centralised

• Feedback and marking approaches which are carefully considered for impact and workload

• Clear, centralised Behaviour for Learning System; pastoral teams supported by non-teaching deputy year leaders

• Lower than typical contact hours for classroom teachers and middle leaders

• Excellent in-house and external CPD opportunities and regular opportunities for career development within the school and trust

• Professional support for ECTs provided by experienced teams of staff

Commitment to safeguarding
