The Academy
Trinity Academy is part of Emmanuel Schools Foundation whose shared vision is:
Each person in our school is valued, challenged and inspired, being ‘made in God’s image’ and therefore infinitely precious, morally responsible and gifted for a purpose. Founded on faith, hope and love, and inspired by Christ, we pursue excellence in character development, learning across the curriculum and service to our communities.
Our seven core virtues of love, wisdom, fairness, self-control, courage, humility and integrity shape all we do as we seek to fulfil our mission to provide Christian ethos schools of character for the whole community.
Trinity Academy is full of exciting potential and has been on a rapid journey of school improvement, particularly over the last three years. We currently have 1297 students on roll. We have 224 places in each year group from Year 7 to Year 11 and we aim to recruit 100 students into the Sixth Form each year. The student roll has increased steadily each year because of our desire to serve as many students as possible and in response to local need for secondary places.
Our staff team is made up of 167 individuals who serve in many different roles. Many staff have been part of the Trinity family for many years. Just like our student body, our staff come from different backgrounds and have different beliefs and interests. What we have in common is a commitment to serving the young people of Thorne and Moorends and their families to the best of our ability.
Who are we looking for?
The successful candidate will have a highly robust and detailed understanding of all aspects of pastoral leadership and will have demonstrated impact in terms of significant improvement in provision and outcomes in their current setting. They will be an exceptional, servant-hearted leader who already has some experience of leadership at a whole-school level. They will be able to demonstrate excellence in their own classroom practice and will evidence significant investment in their own professional development.
The successful candidate will skillfully line manage, and bring together, a number of Senior Assistant Vice Principals and Assistant Vice Principals who are experts in the field of pastoral, attendance, safeguarding and welfare in order to propel us towards an Ofsted “outstanding judgement” in Behaviour and Attitudes in the next inspection.
Emmanuel Schools Foundation is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff to share this commitment. This position is subject to an enhanced DBS check. In addition, as part of the shortlisting process, and in accordance with statutory guidance, we may carry out an online search (for publicly available material) to help identify any incidents or issues that have happened which we may want to explore with shortlisted applicants at interview.
