Children First – Director of Finance

This crucial role in the Trust will help us to continue to fulfil our aims and improve the lives of the young people we work with.

Formed in April 2019, Children First Academy Trust was created through five local primary schools coming together, recognising the value of working together to improve the education we can provide for our children. In the past year all five schools have received very positive Ofsted reports.

Our schools are all located geographically close to each other in Edmonton, North London where there are significantly high levels of deprivation. 35% of our pupils are eligible for Pupil Premium funding and 72% do not have English as their first language. This means we must succeed in what we do and give our children the very best education.

As part of our considered and sustainable approach to growth we have a new, local, school joining us in April and we will continue to look to work with other likeminded school leaders who share our values and aspirations for all young people.
