About Us
Amplify Education is a dynamic new multi-academy trust of 22 schools across Bristol, South Gloucestershire and North Somerset, formed through the thoughtful and planned merger of TiLA and CST.

We would welcome applications from candidates who can demonstrate our school values of kindness, curiosity and commitment and have a passionate commitment to raising attainment and achievement.
