Equitas Academies Trust was formed in September 2012 and incorporates Aston Manor Academy (Secondary) and Chilwell Croft Academy (Primary). Both Academies are happy, exciting and inspiring learning environments for their children who are from a vibrant mix of cultures. The staff and Trustees have a great sense of pride in their Academies and care passionately about their students.

Aston Manor was recently judged to be 'good' with outstanding features following the recent Ofsted inspection (February 2013) and is currently in the top 1% of schools nationally for achievement. In the last three Ofsted inspections student behaviour has been judged to be outstanding. Whilst striving to be an outstanding Academy of the future, Aston Manor is seeking to appoint to this role.

The salary for this post is commensurate with the experience and ability of the successful candidate: the Trust pay policy can be viewed on the Aston Manor Academy website.

Informal visits to the Academy are most welcome.  Arrangements can be made through Teresa Burr, HR Manager on 0121 380 5651.

School Information

Aston Manor has a strong reputation for providing an excellent education for all its pupils in a friendly and caring environment.

Our school caters for children of all abilities in a well-disciplined environment and through a wide range of extra-curricular activities. Our staff are highly qualified, experienced and committed to ensuring that every pupil reaches his or her potential.

We currently have over 830 pupils on roll and pride ourselves on being a close-knit community, in which everyone feels valued and involved. This enables children transferring from primary schools to settle in very quickly.

We are proud of the way in which our pupils conduct themselves both in school and outside. Visitors frequently compliment them on their 'confident and courteous behaviour'. During every lesson, pupils' efforts and conduct are monitored by staff.

Commendation stamps are recorded in their planners at the end of a lesson. These are monitored by form tutors in afternoon registration. This programme ensures that pupils who are working well are rewarded; it also indicates those pupils who could try harder.

This reward system keeps parents informed, lesson by lesson, about how their child is progressing. It draws on a support network which involves form tutors, heads of department, heads of year, assistant head teachers, parents and ultimately, the head teacher and school governors.
