Having high quality staff is fundamental to the on-going success of Caludon Castle and one of the reasons that the school is regarded as one of the best in the City. As a Leadership Specialist and Business and Enterprise School we seek innovative, resourceful and confident individuals to join our winning team.
Staff development is central to Caludon Castle’s philosophy, maintaining that highly motivated, experienced and confident staff are an effective force in teaching and the learning process. The school is therefore committed to a training programme for all staff, inclusive of support staff. This commitment has been recognised by us gaining Investors in People status in June 2005. As a further development of this we received an IiP award for ‘Outstanding Practice in a School’ in June 2005 and the school was re-accredited in June 2007.
