Cambridge Academic Partnership is a cluster of five schools within the United Learning group.

The three secondary schools, Coleridge Community College, Parkside Community College and Trumpington Community College, one primary, The Galfrid School. and a specialist 13-19 college, Cambridge Academy for Science and Technology, work closely together to realise their goal of being a leading learning partnership.

All staff working in the Partnership collaborate to ensure the schools bring out the best in everyone. We have a shared team of support staff, and the work of teaching departments is coordinated across the schools and all staff gather together for two conference days a year.

Students also benefit from an integrated curriculum which allows them to access specialist facilities across the schools, while our combined extra curricular offer promotes our commitment to education with character.

Our staff tell us that they think Cambridge Academic Partnership is a great community to work in and to develop their career - within the wider United Learning group we aim to offer you unrivalled professional development and the opportunity to work as part of a team where your contribution is really valued.

The role

The Science Faculty at CAP consists of a successful group of teachers delivering KS3 Science, GCSEs in Biology, Chemistry and Physics, the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme and A-Levels. There is a strong emphasis on teaching the three sciences separately, with a number of students taking Triple Science at GCSE. The Trust offers a wide range of enrichment activities for students around STEM and makes the most of the school’s proximity to the University of Cambridge Science Faculty.

United Learning

Cambridge Academy Partnership joined United Learning lately, a large, and growing, group of schools aiming to offer a life changing education to children and young people across England.

Our schools work as a team and achieve more by sharing than any single school could. Our subject specialists, our Group-wide intranet, our own curriculum and our online learning portal all help us share knowledge and resource, helping to simplify work processes and manage workloads for an improved work-life balance.

As a Group, we can reward our staff better: with good career opportunities, better pay, benefits, and ultimately, the satisfaction of helping children to succeed. We invest in our staff wellbeing. Our academies each have at least eight INSET days per year (with three of those solely dedicated to planning), and an ongoing group-wide wellbeing programme. It's an ethos we call ‘the best in everyone’.
