At Dixons, we know that great teaching begins with great wellbeing, which is why our teachers enjoy a nine-day fortnight, giving them regular time to rest, reflect and recharge. It’s one of the many ways we’re reimagining what it means to work and to thrive in education. Our associate staff also benefit from flexible working, helping everyone in our community bring their best and most authentic selves to work.
We are a well-established school trust of 16 schools and a college serving the communities of Bradford, Leeds, Liverpool and Greater Manchester. United by a mission to challenge educational and social disadvantage in the North, we want every young person who leaves us at 18 to have genuine choice, whether that’s university or a high-quality apprenticeship.
Our schools may each have their own character, but they’re all built on the same three values: we work hard on the things that matter, with humility; we are good and kind; and we are motivated by mastery, autonomy and purpose. These values guide how we teach, how we lead, and how we treat one another.
We are a diverse family of primary, secondary, all-through schools and a college, united by a shared drive to transform education across the North. We focus on sponsored academies where we can turn challenge into success, and on new free schools that meet the growing demand for excellence. Our diversity is our strength, balancing shared alignment with the freedom to innovate.
We create joyful, rigorous, high-performing schools that maximise achievement, celebrate diversity, build character and enrich cultural capital. Every child is entitled to a knowledge-rich curriculum that opens doors, broadens horizons and helps them understand and shape the world.
We believe success begins with people. Nearly 80% of our budget is invested in talent because our teachers and leaders are our greatest strength. We place our best people where they can make the biggest difference, remove unnecessary barriers, and give them the training and freedom to grow. We see talent not as fixed, but as something cultivated through feedback, curiosity and purpose.
Together, we’re building something special: a trust that delivers exceptional education, nurtures its people and changes lives across the North.
