# Careers At The Ridgeway School & Sixth Form College

## **Your development within The Ridgeway**

We are incredibly proud of our team and the commitment they show every day to helping our students fulfil their potential. We know that our people are our greatest asset, which is why we take professional development seriously. Every colleague—whether a member of our teaching or support staff—has individual goals, ambitions and aspirations. At The Ridgeway, we work hard to ensure that everyone has meaningful opportunities to develop professionally and realise their full potential.

We recognise the commitment our colleagues make to our students, so we regularly review our working practices to ensure they are straightforward, purposeful and effective. We focus on what matters most: enabling teachers to teach high-quality lessons, develop their expertise and enjoy the rewards of this fantastic career.

Our comprehensive professional development programme and simple, effective working practices are underpinned by a strong sense of community. Every member of our school is valued and supported, both as a professional and as a person.

As part of The White Horse Federation, we work closely with a family of five secondary schools, including a specialist SEMH provision. Together, we share expertise, create opportunities and drive school improvement. As a member of staff, you will benefit from expert subject development groups, curriculum steering groups and high-quality professional development through NPQ programmes, Steplab and the National Institute of Teaching.

At The Ridgeway, we share a determination to give every student the very best education, where we are *individual in approach, exceptional in outcome*. This commitment is reflected in our consistent position among the South West’s top ten performing schools and is made possible by the skill, care and dedication of our colleagues. We remain firmly focused on the students in front of us and on providing exceptional education and support in every lesson, every day. Central to this is a bespoke professional development programme for our teachers, shaped by the strongest educational research and responsive to the needs of our students.
