The Bedfordshire Schools Trust (BEST) is a multi-academy trust comprising 10 schools and five nurseries.
We provide exceptional education to over 5,000 children across Central Bedfordshire, from nursery age to advanced level study.
Everything we do is driven by our values: to always put children first, to collaborate with each other to add value and compete to improve, to provide community-based provision, and to have the courage to be compassionate.
We share a vision to grow the BEST in everyone – and that includes our staff. We aim to recruit, retain and develop the highest quality workforce.
As one of the largest single employers in Central Bedfordshire, we are able to offer our staff a fantastic range of benefits, including great opportunities for career development and training.
Full details can be found in our BEST People staff benefits brochure.
The future is exciting for BEST. A primary-secondary model of education is being established to replace the current three-tier system in Central Bedfordshire, more schools are looking to join us as we seek to grow, and performance across all key stages continues to improve.
