What the school offers its staff
Ashby is also a school built on the power of its staff. We have a great team of professionals, with exceptional subject knowledge, who enthuse students about the subjects they love. Ashby School also takes huge pride in growing the professionals of the future; working closely with a range of local ITT providers, as well as utilising professional development opportunities both within and beyond the MAT to ensure that investing in our staff is a key feature in our improvement strategy. This is evidenced by so many of our staff staying at Ashby year after year with several growing from their NQT year into Senior Leadership positions and giving back to their school community through the work they do.
Such investment in staff is also indicative of our willingness to work with those we employ. We know that through a career, things change and new challenges arise. We are proud of the work that we do with staff to ensure that we can find ways to adapt to need and, as such, this post is offered alongside a willingness to discuss flexible working approaches.
We look forward to your application and showing you that ‘Anything is Possible’ in such an innovative and exciting setting!
