We became one of the first academy sponsors 20 years ago and remain very unusual in comprising both a significant number of independent schools and a large group of academies. Our core aims – to bring out the best in everyone and to provide excellent education to all the children and young people we serve – bind us together.

We always appoint on merit. We are open to discussing flexible working options.

Our schools work as a team and achieve more by sharing than any single school could. Our subject specialists, our Group-wide intranet, our own curriculum and our online learning portal all help us share knowledge and resource, helping to simplify work processes and manage workloads for an improved work-life balance.
As a Group, we can reward our staff better: with good career opportunities, better pay, benefits, and ultimately, the satisfaction of helping children to succeed. We invest in our staff wellbeing. Our academies each have at least eight INSET days per year (with three of those solely dedicated to planning), and an ongoing group-wide wellbeing programme. It's an ethos we call ‘the best in everyone’.
