The Arbib Education Trust is a unique Multi-Academy Trust that serves the young people of Langley, Slough and further afield. It encompasses The Langley Academy (secondary), The Langley Academy Primary and The Langley Heritage Primary.
All three schools aim for the highest achievement for all and to provide a welcoming, imaginative and creative environment with enriches the lives of our children and our staff.
Our Vision
We aim to provide an exceptional education through collaboration, high expectations and learning which prompts curiosity, exploration and discovery. We want our work in “the Arbib way” to be characterised by a determination to discover ways of succeeding. We aim to work as a single community of schools sharing many ideas and investing in the future of every child and student in partnership with their families.
One community. Many ideas. Everyone’s future.
One community
The Arbib Education Trust has community at its very heart – creating a sense of belonging and serving local families.
Many ideas
We seek to create an environment which inspires deep curiosity, nurtures exploration of the subject and to discover many perspectives and opinions – creating an inclusive and inquisitive mindset in our students whilst building confidence, acceptance and courage.
In exactly the same way, we encourage all of our teachers to pioneer new ways of learning, challenge the norms and unlock creative ways to inspire future generations. We ask three simple questions:
1. How do you encourage ‘curiosity’?
2. How can you engage our students to ‘explore’ their initial interest and develop it?
3. What will students have ‘discovered’ as a result of this learning?
Everyone’s future
We want every student passing through our doors to leave with confidence, aspiration and inspiration whilst feeling there is no ceiling to achievement.
We want our teachers and staff to feel a great sense of pride and achievement, making a difference to every child and feeling enriched by their own experience at The Trust.
The Trust’s generous sponsors and their network of business leaders allows us to offer our children and staff opportunities and experience, they would not get anywhere else.
As one of our staff members said “With the support we get from our sponsor we are able to shape a curriculum and our educational vision that is slightly different from the norm so that the children get the very best opportunities. We wouldn’t be the school we were if it wasn’t for the support of the Trust.”
What we can offer you….
The health and wellbeing of our staff is of utmost importance to us. We recognise that all of our colleagues have a life outside our school community. To support this, as part of our wider wellness programme we offer a wide range of benefits. Here are a few of the many things we offer:
Flexible working– a bespoke ‘Extra Flex’ scheme offers flexibility on when and where you work, as well as part time and job share options.
Trustee day – a term time day to attend events you wouldn’t ordinarily be able to attend. For example, one of our teachers who is fanatical about tennis went to Wimbledon and others have had the opportunity to celebrate their birthdays at Glastonbury, Henley Regatta and Alton Towers
Private Heathcare Scheme, cycle to work scheme, free use of The Langley Academy gym and hire of the sports hall at a discounted rate to help support a healthy lifestyle.
The benefits don't end there though. Please see our brochure below to see the full range of amazing benefits we offer.
