**Working At Trinity CE High School**:
**_ “Faith in the City, Value in People, Excellence in Education”_**

Trinity’s most recent Ofsted Inspection took place in January 2014 when we were judged to be _‘outstanding’_ in all categories and _‘outstanding for overall effectiveness’_. The most recent National Society (Anglican) Inspection (June 2016) assessed us as _‘outstanding’_ in every category and _‘outstanding’_ overall. The hard work and dedication of colleagues helped us to achieve two further accolades in 2016: _Full International School_ and _Teaching School_ status.

We have a good reputation for supporting the needs of students, providing excellent pastoral and academic support. Systems are kept simple so that students are clear about staff expectations regarding behaviour and that it is their responsibility to make the right choices. Teachers are fully supported, with students quickly removed by Senior Leadership for lack of respect or inattentiveness. As a result, students at Trinity are well behaved and there is a positive atmosphere in the school. Staff in all locations and posts work hard, support one another and enjoy the intrinsic rewards of working in a well-respected and oversubscribed school.

Twice weekly staff briefings are held, along with regular staff meetings, departmental and team meetings and teaching staff have access to weekly development time and on-going CPD sessions. There is a well-established and comprehensive programme of support for newly qualified teaching staff, and this has been singled out as a key strength during on-going reviews of our mentoring practices.

The school has a great location, close to the city centre and able to capitalise on its proximity to both universities, the Science Park, theatres, galleries and museums, the Royal Northern College of Music, the Aquatics Centre and Sports City.

Trinity benefited from a £21.5 million Wave 4 BSF Buildings & ICT Investment, which comprised an 80% rebuild and 15% modernisation. Work was completed in the summer of 2011 and the new school was formally opened by the Archbishop of York in September 2011. We became a converter academy the following year. Trinity is now able to offer an outstanding 21st century education to its 1400 students.
