About Brooke Weston Trust
Our Trust was formed more than 25 years ago with a simple and clear mission – to transform educational performance in all of our communities. Working in some of the most challenging contexts, we improve our students’ achievements by making long term commitments to the community and championing new approaches to improve the life chances for young people.
Our members of staff are essential to
realising this vision, and a happy, motivated and supported team will deliver
the best possible experiences for our young people.
We place great emphasis on creating a
supportive and collaborative working environment in all our schools, where all
staff can share best practice through our colleague networks. Brooke Weston
staff get access to first class professional development through our Ambition
Hub, which is also home to the Northamptonshire Teaching School.
