Support for new colleagues is excellent at Myton. We have a well-established induction programme and we’re highly committed to the ongoing professional development of our entire staff.

We have a well-equipped school site with two main adjacent buildings and separate purpose-built facilities for PE, Design Technology, Science and English. We also have a specially designed Performing Arts Centre. Our extensive playing fields include two full-size football pitches, a floodlit astro-turf pitch and the John Atkinson Sports Hall.
Warwickshire is a wonderful place to live and work. The towns of Warwick and Leamington offer a great combination of green spaces, historical buildings, leisure facilities and a wide variety of shops, bars and restaurants. There, is a great local road network with the nearby M40 and A46, as well as a fast train links with Birmingham and London. In 2020 Leamington Spa was named by the Sunday Times as one of the best places to live in the UK due to its elegant architecture and cutting-edge technology.
