What the school offers its staff
Hadleigh High School is a vibrant, student- focused 11 – 16 secondary school rated “Good” by Ofsted in January 2019. We foster a strong community and have great pride in our students and their achievements. Our examination results continue to improve year on year, but we still have ambitious plans for the future.
As part of the Penrose Learning Trust we also work closely with other schools within the MAT to achieve “excellence through collaboration”.
Our Commitment to Your CareerHadleigh High School is committed to providing excellent CPD opportunities and career progression for all staff. We prioritise staff training and development and believe that all members of staff should have a thorough induction and an ongoing programme of training and professional development.
Training is delivered every Monday and it is divided between departmental sessions on subject pedagogy and broader professional enquiry accessed via the Great Teacher Toolkit. All colleagues are part of the whole school coaching programme where we review effective lesson structures and pedagogy, enabling all of us to continually reflect on our current teaching and always seek to improve.
By investing in staff development our staff body is up to date with the latest thinking and practice in education. This in turn enables them to provide the best learning opportunities for our students, something we are passionate about every day we come to work.
Commitment to safeguarding
Hadleigh High School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and we expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We firmly believe that all young people have a right to be safe and healthy, and our everyday practices support this principle.
