Thank you for considering joining our trust. I am very proud to be the CEO of the Brighter Futures Learning Partnership Trust (BFLPT); it is a privilege to work with passionate, like-minded colleagues who are all focused on delivering the best educational provision for the children and young people of Doncaster. We are a multi-academy trust serving the local needs of our community with great passion; we have a team of highly committed staff, governors, local businesses and trustees who are committed to creating and delivering a world-class trust vision.

A big vision lies at the heart of the BFLPT; excellence is at the heart of all that we do and with this in mind, we aim to be one of the highest performing and unique trusts in the country, acknowledging that every child is different.  As such, our curriculum offer will be shaped to reflect the diversity of our learners and their needs if they are to excel and develop into the next generation of highly skilled learners and innovators.

Our vision is to create teaching and learning which is inspirational, challenging and relevant to the 21st century where every child and young person can fulfil their potential. We are also committed to developing outstanding pastoral care which we know is an essential ingredient in ensuring that every child can flourish to develop the knowledge, skills and attributes which will enable them to have the widest possible choice of career pathways.

We are unique in that our family of schools includes; four Doncaster primary schools, an infant school, an 11-16 secondary school and Doncaster University Technical College, a newly built state of the art school with specialisms in engineering and digital design.

The successful candidate will be based at Doncaster UTC, but may be required to work elsewhere within Trust, as may reasonably be required by the Headteacher/Principal, CEO for the discharge of your duties.

Doncaster UTC is an award-winning UTC, having won ‘Best New School 2021’ and also being the winner of the ‘Best UTC UK’ as part of the Global Awards 2022. We have also won the Doncaster Business Award 2021 for ‘Success Through Partnerships’, demonstrating the UTC's commitment to providing an excellent education for the next ‘Employees of the Future’.

Doncaster UTC opened in September 2020 as part of the Brighter Futures Learning Partnership Trust and specialises in Engineering, Creative and Digital Technologies and Medical Sciences, providing a high-quality curriculum in collaboration with industry partners to the first intake of Year 9 and 12 students.

The school will work closely with a number of external bodies, such as the University of Sheffield, Multiweb Marketing, and S-Media. We have also launched our new Cyber Security Operations Centre in partnership with Thalies. This is intended to ensure that students are able to maximise their employability and be successful in the modern workplace. Doncaster UTC will offer both academic and national pathways in STEAM subjects, but students will also be able to access subjects such as Geography and Business Studies.

Being part of our Trust will offer you a fantastic opportunity to develop yourself, and, have a strong influence on student outcomes across our family of schools. We actively encourage collaboration and the sharing of good practice; we believe that by developing a love of learning and having the highest expectations, all children and young people can excel.
