Job overview
‘CAT employs rolling recruitment methodologies, with shortlisting and interviews for some roles taking place as and when applications are received. This may mean that some roles are recruited to before the closing date, and therefore advise that applications are made without undue delay’.
CAT was formed in 2019 out of the success of its founding school Carlton Bolling. Since then, the Trust has experienced rapid growth, currently comprising nine schools (three secondary, three primary, three special). Our growth plan is different, in that we don’t have ambitions to become a large trust. Instead, we will limit growth to around 10-12 schools, instead focussing on improving outcomes across the trust in accordance with our mission ‘Excellence for All’ and ambition to make all schools ‘Outstanding’. This commitment to high standards can be seen through the Ofsted ratings of our schools (all Good’ with two ‘Outstanding’) and the huge array of awards at local, regional, and national level.
We recognise the crucial importance of staff to our success, so do all we can to protect their wellbeing and enable them to reach their full potential. This includes stripping away unnecessary meetings and administrative tasks so that they can maximise their time concentrating on what they are trained to do, best at, and want to do most. This facilitates the ‘outstanding’ outcomes we aspire to whilst maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
The Trust also offers a comprehensive package of employee benefits through its ‘Carlton Cares’ programme, which are similar to those found in many large private sector employers. These include fully funded private health insurance (Simply Health) and Employee Assistance Programme (Health Assured), in addition to salary sacrifice and employee discount schemes. Some schools also have early Friday finishing times, which are also popular amongst staff. We have very high expectations of student behaviour and conduct, which makes schools a calm, welcoming and pleasant environment.
