We are a successful Trust for students with special educational needs and have two schools: Friars Academy which is rated outstanding by Ofsted and Chelveston Road School which was opened in 2021 and is rated as Good with Outstanding Behaviour and Attendance. We are investing in our expertise to provide support to not only our students, but also to offer support to mainstream schools, through a dedicated outreach team. The students and staff are open and welcoming, and we would like to invite you to apply for a role as trustee. We want people who are passionate about giving special needs students the best possible start in life. If you have skills that would help to support the Board then please apply. We are especially interested in people with experience in HR, special education, governance or legal affairs. As a trustee you would need to be able to carry out this role you will have to commit to: up to 6 Board meetings a year attend two committee meetings 3 times a year and, where possible, visit the school at events and during the school day. We are an Equal Opportunities employer and welcome applications from appropriately qualified persons regardless of gender, race, religion, disability or age. We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Any potential trustee will need to undergo checks to ensure they are suitable to work with young people. These will include, but are not limited to DBS, Social Media and Section 128 checks. You are welcome to arrange a visit to see us and experience the positive atmosphere for our children.
