We have significant experience and expertise in supporting HR issues through sickness management, disciplinary process, contractual changes and staffing restructures. We offer a broad and varied CPD programme. There will be opportunities for staff of partner academies to gain additional experience working across the Federation as well as within their own schools as part of our commitment to professional development.
Specialist School Services
There are significant opportunities for students and children to learn together across academies through sport, drama and music, and by accessing specialist facilities at each academy. There is an extended transition programme for partner primary schools, giving access to specialist facilities at Catmose College and, provided admissions policies prioritise the local community, the possibility of feeder school status to Catmose College. Our music service supports the administration and deployment of our instrumental music teachers to offer tuition from reception through to post-16 students. Our educational visits coordinator supports an extensive range of trips and visits locally and internationally for our academies.
