Our people are our most important asset, so it’s vital that we inspire, develop and retain our talent in order to successfully deliver our Trust mission – to transform educational performance across our communities while providing opportunities for personal development.

We’ve been through a rigorous process in designing this strategy and it’s very much based on YOUR feedback, informed by the results of our previous staff survey, focus groups with teachers, support staff and middle leaders and a review of our people data.

Our aim is to be a supportive, collaborative and inclusive employer that is able to attract, develop and retain a highly engaged and capable workforce: promoting a positive and fulfilling experience for all our people where our mission, values and equity, diversity and inclusion underpins everything we do.

This presentation sets out a clear and exciting action plan with achievable outcomes and deliverable projects. Our People Team will deliver our vision through a set of key areas and deliverable objectives, categorised into six priority areas:

• Deepening our sense of belonging, engagement and staff voice 
• Utilising technology to enhance and innovate
• Maximising wellbeing and managing workload
• High-quality and accessible CPD for everyone
• Celebrating, recognising and rewarding success
• Recruiting great talent and planning our future workforce

As shared with colleagues in the recent CEO roadshows which have taken place at every Brooke Weston Trust school, work has already begun on some of the items in our People Strategy. This work will continue, fuelled by the strategy, to ensure our people continue to be proud employees of Brooke Weston Trust and know their future is with us.
