 “Staff feel very well supported by senior leaders. According to staff, they feel valued because senior leaders are approachable. They respond positively when staff raise issues with them. Staff and leaders work together to find solutions, particularly if staff are concerned about their workload.” OFSTED, March 2020.  

At The Highcrest Academy, we put the safety and well-being of our children at the forefront of everything that we do. With this in mind, every post at The Highcrest Academy bring you into contact with children and therefore you, will be required to undergo an DBS Enhanced (including Barred List) Check before taking up your role.  These checks will include details of convictions, cautions, reprimands and warnings, which you may have received, even if they are regarded as ‘spent’ under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. You will also be asked (where appropriate) to let us know immediately of any changes in your circumstances which will have an impact on your criminal record.

If you’re thinking of applying to us here at Highcrest, it is worth noting that every member of the aforementioned leadership team is still in position.

All successful candidates who apply directly to the school are eligible for our ‘Golden Hello’ scheme. This is an additional payment of £2,000 added to your pay and paid over the first 2 years of employment. Payments are normally made in £500 instalments, the first being paid after the completion of the first month, then completion of the first year with the final £1000 being paid through the second year of employment.  

If you are a team player, passionate about education and social mobility then The Highcrest Academy is the school for you; a thriving and friendly academy in the heart of the community, with staff recognition schemes, free gym and staff sports teams to counter the free breakfast, “Friday Treats” and on-site coffee shop!
