Towers School and Sixth Form Centre

At Towers, we believe that, with access to a knowledge rich curriculum, unwavering high expectations of conduct and behaviour, an excellent welfare system and the very best teaching, our students can be exceptional.

Why teach at Towers?

At Towers, we believe every child deserves access to high quality teaching and a knowledge rich curriculum. Our rigorous behaviour system ensures teachers have the freedom to teach without disruption and our detentions are run centrally by the Leadership Team. We value teachers’ time and follow a streamlined assessment policy we call Closing the Gap (see our blog) so that teachers can plan responsively to the needs of the students in front of them rather than spending hours marking. We firmly believe that subject knowledge underpins good teaching and therefore support our staff to engage with research and further reading as part of ongoing CPD, renewing, refining and updating their expertise continually.

If you have passion for evidence in education, if you share our uncompromising vision of high expectations and if you believe that every child has the right to be successful, then Towers is the school for you.
