We're on the lookout for highly skilled and passionate staff to be part of our dynamic school community.
More about our amazing school:
At Staughton College, we are deeply passionate about high-quality education and its positive impact on young people and their communities. For us, education is more than just imparting knowledge; it's about nurturing the whole individual, fostering a love for learning, and equipping students with the skills and values they need to succeed in life.
Over the past decade, our college has grown significantly, now serving over 1,800 students with a dedicated team of 200 staff members. Our community thrives on the belief that students excel when their learning and well-being are closely connected. We are committed to creating an environment where every student has the opportunity to become the best version of themselves.
Our guiding philosophy is grounded in equity of access and high expectations, ensuring that all children will learn and achieve their full potential. We ensure that all students leave Staughton College with a love of learning, a strong sense of self-worth, confidence, independence, risk-taking skills, and self-discipline. High expectations for learning and behaviour are tied to respect for the rights and responsibilities of all members of our community.
Staughton College is a place where students are empowered to be dynamic members of our community, actively participating in both classroom learning and extracurricular activities. Through our Staughton Student Matrix, we explicitly teach and acknowledge key positive behaviours that enhance learning, effort, and respect. As an accredited Select Entry Accelerated Learning (SEAL) school, we offer specialized pathways for highly able students, ensuring they receive the support and opportunities needed to excel.
A cornerstone of our philosophy is a staff culture that prioritizes strong relationships and open, meaningful conversations about what truly matters. This culture is not just a statement, it¿s something we live out every day. We consistently model and reinforce these values, ensuring we support one another while also holding ourselves accountable to the highest standards.
We believe that by investing in every staff member and supporting them in being their best, our students will be best placed to thrive. This commitment is reflected in the ongoing support and the many opportunities we provide for professional growth in teaching and leadership.
Our teaching staff use point-of-need data and assessments to plan personalized learning environments, effectively engaging students and meeting their unique needs. Our instructional model, based on the Marzano/Pollock GANAG framework, is used consistently across classrooms, ensuring deep learning. We also embrace a whole-school approach to curriculum development, where strong practitioners invest in writing robust curriculum frameworks, allowing teaching teams to focus on how to teach content effectively.
At Staughton College, we strive to exceed expectations, fostering a culture where everyone-students and staff alike-can grow, learn, and achieve excellence.
