Welcome to Higham Lane North Academy.
We are fully committed to ensuring that everyone will excel because we have high expectations for all pupils and we provide high levels of care and support to ensure that they are the happy and successful people that we all want them to be.
Our principle mission at Higham Lane North Academy is that ‘everyone is included and everyone belongs.’ We are a truly inclusive school where we champion every pupil so that no child is left behind. We are committed to ensuring that every child has something that they are interested in, that engages them, that they can contribute to, feel recognised and valued for – we know that self-esteem and wellbeing are inextricably linked to belonging, and we do everything to ensure that pupils at HLNA feel that they are a key part of our school, that they have something to offer and be valued for.
Higham Lane North Academy pupils are ‘proud because we do what is right’. We actively and explicitly role model and teach key attributes of wisdom, integrity, gratitude, perseverance and resilience which is underpinned by our ‘3Cs’: our core values of being conscientious, compassionate and confident. We prioritise this because we want pupils to have the knowledge and skills that are required for them to be happy and successful not only whilst they are at school, but also to prepare them for fulfilling and meaningful lives that bring them a strong sense of wellbeing. We want HLNA pupils to be confident going out into the world because they know what the right thing is to do, in any given situation, whether that be in their personal or professional lives.
As part of our care and support curriculum, we ensure that every child is safe, happy, has purpose and a sense of belonging, which is achieved through what we teach, and how we teach. Every day, through our character and culture curriculum, we provide pupils with a wide range of opportunities to achieve the NORTH STAR principles of Service, Teamwork, Ambition and Resilience not only within the classroom, but crucially beyond it so that every child feels safe and happy to attend school through our carefully planned and sequenced care and support curriculum. Our fully immersive approach includes both a contextualised safeguarding and attendance curriculum and a taught behaviour curriculum alongside co-curricular opportunities encompassing charity, community, competition, creativity, culture and leadership. We do this because we want pupils to recognise their value and contribution that they can make; that there is so much to be involved in and this contributes to their whole development.
Our commitment to excellent teaching and learning and an ambitious, broad and balanced knowledge curriculum is relentless. We ensure that pupils leave Higham Lane North Academy with the confidence that comes from possessing the best of what has been thought, said and written about every subject that they learn. Our carefully planned and sequenced ambitious curriculum ensures that pupils’ knowledge is built so that they learn more and remember more and through our values of being conscientious, compassionate and confident, we create a culture within the classroom which ensure that pupils are ambitious for themselves and others that they learn alongside. Alongside the curriculum, it is expected that all pupils take part in the Innovation and Inspiration programme which places ambition at the heart of the programme, linking their daily lived experience to the futures that they want to inhabit when they are older.
For Higham Lane North Academy, our staff will be our most precious resource in delivering outstanding outcomes for our pupils. Our offer to staff includes: -
Competitive remuneration package;
A generous defined benefit pension scheme;
Excellent continuous professional development;
A supportive Employee Assistance Programme; and
Employee benefits scheme.
Our partner schools have an extremely positive reputation both locally and nationally and consistently attract the highest calibre of teachers, support staff and governors.
We will be looking to recruit the most accomplished teaching and support staff to make a positive difference to the lives of the pupils at Higham Lane North Academy whilst benefiting from excellent continuing professional development, attractive career development opportunities and imaginative approaches to staff workload and wellbeing. Posts will be advertised in national, local and specialist media as appropriate.
Our teaching and support staff will be joining a school which is passionate about teaching and learning and pastoral care, where colleagues are always developing their practice and learning from each other. Our staff will receive regular training in the most effective teaching and learning techniques, and we will provide bespoke career stage training.
We are committed to reducing teacher workload by always looking to streamline our ways of working. We will value our staff as experts in their subject and support them to work very effectively in their subject teams to produce schemes of learning and resources. Pupils will use knowledge organisers for revision during homework and peer-assess themselves, enhancing their subject knowledge.
Staff wellbeing is very important to us. We will ensure a work-life balance in the way we organise our meetings and INSET days. We will support staff to look after themselves, for example through our health awareness events. We will celebrate our many achievements in a range of social events.
All the staff who we employ will be expected to demonstrate a responsibility for and a commitment to the safeguarding of pupils. We will offer regular, high-quality training to enable staff to do this effectively.
