About Sir Christopher Hatton Academy
At Hatton Academies Trust we value our people and their contributions to our work community; the dedicated class-based teachers, the responsive administrators, the pastoral experts, the inspirational leaders, the supportive mental health first aiders, the attentive learning assistants… the list could go on and on!
We appreciate every individual in our Trust and their contribution to our successful outcomes. We always know that we can do more and we are continuously working on actively listening, upskilling, supporting and improving in any way which supports our colleagues.
We serve a diverse community of families from a wide range of nationalities and ethnic backgrounds and differing socio-economic situations. We employ people from the local community which is a great way to invest in, and develop, local talent and to provide role models to whom our students can relate.
We also attract people from further afield; Wellingborough is an expanding area and with good transport links to London, the south east and midlands; we find that new employees have often relocated to the area.

The school has offered me real and frequent opportunities for growth and development, both professionally and personally. I’ve always felt fully supported by the academy’s infrastructure, but this was especially the case in my first year of teaching: I was allowed to find my own voice and style, but I was supported every step of the way.
- Alex Wright, Teacher of English.Hatton is a vibrant, diverse community that knows how to work hard and play as a team - whether it is a community charity fundraiser or an inter-house challenge, events are very well-supported by staff and students alike in a spirit of friendly rivalry. Charity weeks are a regular fixture on our calendar and the students all have a say in their house charity of the year.
