The Role

Nishkam Schools are Sikh ethos multi-faith schools committed to academic excellence grounded in a selfless approach to life (nishkam). We respect all faiths and focus on nurturing children of all beliefs and those of no particular faith. Our schools promote collective worship and learning from faith, not just about faith.

Our aim is to nurture lifelong learners, confident individuals, responsible citizens, and compassionate contributors to society. We emphasize a holistic approach to education that extends beyond standard models, incorporating faith-based virtues that define character and outlook on life.

We believe faith-inspired virtues should be practiced daily to build strong communities and responsible citizens. Our vision is to share common values and strive for excellence through innovative education, exemplified by being the first multi-faith trust in the country.

We thank you for considering joining us and look forward to your application.
