About Us

We are a Multi Academy Trust comprising of six secondary schools and one primary school with over 750 employees and over 5,500 students, based in Dudley, West Midlands.

This involves full technical support to teaching staff and students, particularly in the preparation/clearing of lesson materials and equipment.

You need to have energy, enthusiasm and be willing to contribute to the wider life of the school.

You will need to work on your own initiative, have good organisational skills, work well under pressure and be able to support students and staff with their work.
