Toot Hill School is an Outstanding (Ofsted, 2012) 11–18 academy in the rural market town of Bingham, Nottinghamshire—recently named by Family Investments as the best place in the UK to raise a family.

Toot Hill is a friendly, thriving secondary school with a welcoming, invigorated staff and bright, engaged pupils. It is a prospering, professional environment with a high standard of teaching and management.

Toot Hill offers staff the opportunity to undertake a fully-funded MA, and offers a comprehensive CPD programme tailored to individual needs.  Ranked in the top 2% of schools nationally in 2012 and designated a teaching school in 2013, Toot Hill is an outstanding school to be a part of.

Toot Hill School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and we expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All staff will be required to undergo an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service search before employment.

Toot Hill is the founder school of the Nova Education Trust—a dynamic and growing Multi Academy Trust  based in the East Midlands. Our Trust is committed to providing high quality education to all of our students, regardless of their backgrounds.

With a range of schools in the trust serving a variety of different communities, opportunities for career progression and wider professional experiences are extensive. We have outstanding CPD provision across our schools, supported by our Teaching School Alliance, which links 23 schools together, sharing effective practice and developing new models for staff development. We also have a unique programme designed to provide middle and senior leaders with all the skills required to develop their careers.

As an employer we offer an enhanced benefit package to all staff that includes help with healthcare and a fully-funded MA programme for all teaching staff. We can also offer help with relocation in certain circumstances. The Trust also has a policy of wider engagement for main-scale, middle and senior staff. In recent years, employees have visited schools in America, Canada, Finland, Singapore and South Africa as part of their professional development.
