ABOUT WIGSTON ACADEMIES TRUST

Wigston Academies Trust is part of the newly formed campus of schools, which opened in September 2015.  The Trust incorporates Wigston Academy and Wigston College. Our distinctive school badge links the school to Wigston Magna representing as it does the steeples of All Saints and St. Wistan Churches, recalling the town’s former name of “Wigston of two steeples”.  We are extremely proud of our links with the local community, both in the past and in the present. The priority of the schools is to provide the highest quality education for every child within a safe, caring and orderly environment.

To this end we are committed to meeting the needs of children by working in partnership with parents and by providing a wealth of experience and opportunities to encourage every child to achieve their full potential, be confident, responsible, independent and well educated individuals able to fulfil positive roles in society and to have a successful future.  Our aspirations for the children are aptly summarised in our school motto “Learn l Aspire l Achieve” Everyone at Wigston Academies Trust makes every effort to provide each child with the necessary care and support so that they feel safe, happy and be successful.

WORKING FOR US

In order to keep up with a dramatic rise in student numbers and further planned expansion, the Trust is recruiting in a number of areas.

Do you want to come and join us?

We only have one rule:

do right for our students. They come first and we are united in our work to give them the best possible deal at school.

Several of our posts are vacant due to promotion, including to headship and senior leadership. If you are ambitious and want to take your career further, we might be the Trust for you. If you are happy in the classroom and want to develop as a teacher without taking additional responsibility, then we would love to hear from you too. It is just as important for us to get the right support staff colleagues and you’d get the same warm welcome and support.

Wigston Academies Trust is made up of Wigston Academy (11-16) and Wigston College (16-19).

Both were rated strong good in our last OFSTEDs in May and June 2022.
