The Hollyfield School has an extensive CPD programme which offers regular training sessions to enhance teachers' classroom practice, which are led by all staff from within the school and the wider Multi Academy Trust. The Trust also provides excellent subject-level support, CPD and Leadership CPD through several programmes externally and within the Trust.

This role is ideal for an individual who is committed to helping our students achieve their very best. For further details about The Hollyfield School please visit our website.
