Values and Vision

We believe that every child has the right to go to a good school and that every child should have the opportunity to transform their life, whatever their starting point.  Five key questions underpin our vision of 'transforming lives through inspirational education':

Are we securing equity?

Is our leadership driving improvement?

Is our curriculum irrestible?

Are we research informed?

Are we managing resources effectively?

The Henry Box School is one of the founding schools of The Mill Academy Trust.  Schools, staff and children within the Trust benefit from a strong ethos of support and collaboration.  We also challenge ourselves to be even better, every day.  We are not content with always doing what we've always done.  The new educational landscape requires new ways of thinking, leading and operating and, at Henry Box, we aim to build on tradition and educate for the future.

Professional Development

The school invests heavily in staff CPD, our booklet is attached which gives a flavour of what is on offer.  The school is one of only 14 schools in the country to be awarded the Teacher Development Trust's Gold Award for our CPD programmes for our staff.

Professional Development is central to our work and we offer opportunities and support for all staff to develop their skills.  From our excellent NQT programme through to our ‘Future Leader’ programme, we are committed to recruiting and retaining the best.  Being the lead school in our multi academy trust, we can also offer the opportunity for colleagues to develop their careers beyond one school if this is their area of interest.
