In addition, colleagues will benefit from being part of the Pathfinder Trust Career Pathway and through working with colleagues across other Trust schools to develop skills and share innovative teaching and learning experiences.

The candidate will be required to undergo a full enhanced DBS check and must be eligible to work in the UK.
