We are recruiting!

At The Kite Academy Trust, we are looking to appoint talented early career teachers across all phases to join our exceptional team from September 2026!

The Kite Academy Trust is built around a shared vision - for every pupil to be happy and healthy, to contribute positively to their communities, and to achieve academic excellence. Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do. As an ECT, you will be part of a supportive, forward-thinking Trust where schools work closely together; by working as one Kite team, we believe we are stronger together. We place a significant emphasis on colleague wellbeing, and our unique wellness pledge ensures that every member of staff feels supported, valued and able to thrive. You will benefit from a structured ECT programme, high-quality mentoring and opportunities to learn from experienced colleagues across the Trust.
