If it would not be good enough for our own relatives, it is not good enough for our pupils. This is our school’s golden rule. We want the best for every child, regardless of where they were born, how much money they do or don’t have and who they are (gender, race, sex, religion, disability, sexual orientation). That is what drives us. We want people who are similarly driven. We want people who will not only grow the next generation but also people who are eager to take every opportunity to grow themselves.

We offer superb professional development opportunities, including the full suite of NPQs and excellent ECT support that goes well beyond what many schools offer. We are committed to fostering a culture that values the health and well-being of all employees at Matrix Academy Trust. We are proud to offer a comprehensive well-being package to all employees, including access to 24/7 online GP, physiotherapy services and counselling services. We also offer all employees annual health checks which includes the flu jab, BMI checks and a general discussion with a qualified Nurse.
