Phoenix was one of only a few schools nationally to benefit from the government’s priority schools building programme, and our state-of-the-art facilities which opened in 2017 are second to none. But we have not stopped there, with additional MUGAs, a climbing wall, low-level assault course and new teaching walls in every classroom with new interactive screens already added. By September 2025, we aim to have a new classroom block with gym facilities, as well as a 3G soccer pitch.
We invest heavily in the professional development of our staff and have a calendar of high-quality activities that support the career progression of individuals and the priorities of the school. As a school, we have signed up to the Staff Well-being Charter and invested in a benefits and welfare package for our staff which includes a car salary sacrifice scheme. We also have many family friendly policies within the school.
Phoenix really is a great place to work, but don’t take my word for it, please take the opportunity to visit us and see for yourself. I would be proud and delighted to show you around.
