Thank you for your interest in The Dukeries Academy (TDA) and Academy Transformation Trust (ATT). Part of our Vision at TDA is to develop ‘Our People’. Being recognised as an exceptional place to work is important to us as we aspire to attract, retain, and develop the very best leaders and staff.
Our Mission at The Dukeries Academy is to transform lives by inspiring excellence and maximising opportunities for all. As a rapidly improving Academy, at the heart of the Ollerton community, we support every student to achieve the qualifications they need to progress confidently to the next stage of learning, training, or employment. To complement their qualifications, we also develop the skills and character traits, which will allow our students to become positive change makers in their own and other people’s lives.
At the Dukeries Academy, we live our values. We aspire to act with integrity, are ambitious in our purpose and are resilient in our pursuit of excellence. We are a Disability Confident Employer, at ATT we are passionate about Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and welcome all applications.
Our team of talented staff are friendly and professional, fully committed to the educational, pastoral, and well-being needs of our students. We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic Pastoral Leader to collaborate with Heads of Year, Pastoral Leaders and other colleagues to improve attainment and progress for all students.
