At George Green’s School, we value all employees and regard professional development as an entitlement for all, therefore all staff are included in our training plan.

Meetings centre around improving standards of learning and teaching, assessment and moderation and raising standards and meeting students’ needs. At George Green’s, we fundamentally believe the key to success of training opportunities is the measurable impact they have on students’ learning and sharing good practise within teams is one of the best forms of training and development. In addition to this, all teachers coach and support each other; with the aim of improving the learning experience and outcomes for students.

Training takes place fortnightly: the students leave at 2pm every Wednesday, to enable our staff to focus productively on their training and development.

Early Career Teachers (ECT) begin working with us in (and are paid from) July and benefit from a full training programme, providing them with an insight into the school prior to teaching commencing and ensuring they receive a rigorous induction into George Green’s School.

ECTs will also follow a programme of induction sessions throughout the year, delivered and led by experienced, expert practitioners, and paired with a professional and subject mentor, with whom they will have regular meetings and support through the induction year.

Relationships between staff are based on mutual respect and development feedback. Senior leaderships are dedicated to empowering staff through clear leadership and recognising the potential and commitment of staff. At George Green’s School, every member of staff is valued.

At George Green's we take pride in our welcoming and inclusive working culture. Take a moment to learn more about how our collaboration with Tower Project Charity is helping young people with learning difficulties to enter the workplace. #aspirationequalityexcellence

At George Green's, we are proud to be an inclusive family. This year, we partnered with the Tower Project Jet Service to provide six young people  with learning disabilities the chance to enhance their working skills. It was a rewarding experience for all involved, and we look forward to continuing to support and empower individuals of all abilities.

The Tower Project Jet Service supports people with learning disabilities to enter into employment through supported internship and  apprenticeship schemes as well as employment advise and support. read more about their charitable work at www.towerproject.org.uk
