We are not a one-size-fits-all Trust. We offer a bespoke approach to any school considering joining our MAT. We have a creative, solution-focused outlook and expect those looking to join us or work with us in this way when considering any aspect of our growth or provision. Our experience and success has been rooted in our ability to talent-spot and harness capacity wherever it is and turn it into an opportunity to enable our children's success.

We are unashamedly ambitious, not only for our children but also for all of our staff. We believe that from the moment teachers begin their ECT year they are leaders; they are leading the learning in their classrooms and the other adults who are there in a supporting role. We actively search out opportunities to develop our teachers' skills in three main areas:

• Strengthening their own classroom provision
• Leading whole school developments
• Supporting other practitioners' provision

When recruiting we look for candidates with strong academic backgrounds + a well-rounded range of interests who understand that teaching is a cerebral activity which requires critical thinking, reflection and resilience to secure the best outcomes for children in the widest possible context. In essence, we want colleagues whose skill-set gives them a choice of employment but who want to be teachers because they believe they have a part to play in securing our future generation's life chances.

We recognise that for an Early Career Teacher (ECT), the task of finding a job starts in earnest many months before you take up a post in September. You will need to select a school which is affordable to live nearby, has good transport links and routes, and one where you won’t feel unsupported or alone.
