Why join Carlton Academy Trust?
We are an award-winning multi-academy trust with passion, purpose and people at our core. We manage nine schools (3 secondary, 3 primary and 3 special schools) in and around Bradford and Leeds, supporting over 3,700 students and employing over 980 members of staff.
Driven by a shared vision to provide Excellence for All, we operate an open and supportive culture, where our people are encouraged to be leaders, taking innovative approaches where necessary to ensure provision is the absolute best it can be.
We strive to preserve a proper work-life balance, so that staff have the time to achieve the high standards we aspire to within contracted hours and don’t need to routinely take work home. Some examples of how we do this include:
- Using more productive and efficient work systems
- Reduction in paperwork and bureaucracy
- Commitment to holding just one after school meeting or event each week
- Shorter, compact school days which enable earlier finish times
- Early Friday finishes at some schools
What type of people do we look for?
Although experience is important, the Trust primarily looks to identify character and potential and those people who, with the necessary support and direction, will attain the very highest standards. These priorities are encoded in the Trust Leadership Philosophies, which are an expectation of all leaders at CAT.
