It is an exciting time to join St Thomas Aquinas Catholic School. In 2011, the school was judged ‘Outstanding’ by OFSTED and became part of the Lumen Christi Catholic Multi Academy in April 2015. Since September 2018, we have made significant developments to our behaviour systems and have been working hard to develop a knowledge-rich curriculum.

We are looking for someone who:

• Outstanding CPD to allow you to grow and reach your full potential, preparing you for future roles.

This is a wonderful opportunity for the right person to work with highly dedicated staff in a popular Catholic secondary school.

Taking up a post in a new school is challenge and we would like your decision to join us to be well informed and to feel right for you. You are, therefore, more than welcome to come for an informal visit to our School. We will consider either a October 2018 or January 2019 start for the right candidate.
