At the Thinking Schools Academy Trust, a firm belief we inspire in our students is to ‘Be Your Best Self’; to have high aspirations and work hard to achieve these goals. For our staff, we seek the same. We value all members of our community, and pride ourselves on the framework of professional and personal support we provide to support all on their journey to being their best. We were therefore delighted to have been recognised by Investors in People for our commitment to this.
Investors in People is an international standard for people management, offering accreditations to organisations that uphold best practice and the Investors in People Standard. making us one of the first organisations to do so under the new Investors in People Framework.
We acknowledge that every member of staff is on their own individual journey with regards to their career aspirations and job statifcation, therefore our professional development is designed to align with this.
Our in-house CPD provision, Thinking Horizons, offers holistic support to enable our staff to reach the next step in their career.
We have a duty of care for our staff, ensuring they have the right support framework so they can be their best self.
At the Thinking Schools Academy Trust we provide a 24/7 employee assistance programme which provides counselling and support / advice on a wide array of areas.
As an education Trust, the work we do has a transformative impact on the lives of young people. Such important work should not go unrewarded; here at TSAT we launched our 'TSTARS' recognition and reward scheme that includes seasonal rewards for our people going above and beyond.
