We expect all staff to be actively involved in the personal development of our young people and to show full commitment to their own and the school’s professional development.

What the school offers its staff
One of the ways we achieve success at Trafalgar School is through our explicit focus on Relational Practice (often referred to as Restorative Practice) which is centred around behaviours, interactions and approaches that build and maintain healthy relationships, resolving difficulties and repairing harm where there is conflict. The culture of belonging that has emerged has a significant impact on the well-being of staff and students at Trafalgar School. This is because everyone is valued, and everyone is heard. High challenge and high support underpin our relational approach, meaning everyone is aware of what is expected and what is acceptable, yet provided with the support they need to achieve their potential. This is an important part of our inclusive ethos, where we prioritise equity over equality.
Commitment to safeguarding
SAFEGUARDING Salterns Academy Trust and Trafalgar School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We will ensure that all our recruitment and selection practices reflect this commitment. All successful candidates will be subject to Disclosure and Barring checks along with other relevant employment checks.
