• An iPad to use in school and at home, to enable seamless remote working, using cloud-based technology.
• Commitment to staff wellbeing through a variety of internal practices, designed to recruit and retain the very best staff.
• Work-life balance – three paid staff wellbeing days each year, where employees are not required to be in school
• Complimentary use of the school sports facilities, including gymnasium, swimming pool and fitness equipment.
• Comprehensive range of staff social events throughout the year.
