This is an exciting time to be working at Coundon Court School.

Our aim is to ensure our students leave Coundon Court academically successful and with the knowledge and experiences that will enable them to direct their own lives and have a great life. This is our core purpose and it’s what drives us every single day.

Our core values of Hard Work, Kindness and Respect underpin everything that we do. It is these values, alongside our unrelenting belief in our students and our driven commitment to work as a team, that makes Coundon Court a wonderful and supportive place to work.

We place a great emphasis on routines and doing the right things every day to ensure we are doing the very best for our students and the community we serve. We embrace candour and consider all feedback as a gift.

We call this The Coundon Way. It’s the way we do things around here.

Your growth as a teacher is fundamentally important to our journey as a school. From whatever starting point, we will challenge and nurture your professional growth. 

It is an exciting time for a dynamic and innovative practitioner to make their mark. We can promise a demanding but ultimately rewarding experience as we move forward towards an “outstanding” future.
