About the employer

Scandinavia Mills, Hunsworth Lane, Bradford BD19 4LN
Our Trust Welcome to SHARE Multi-Academy Trust, a close-knit family of schools where our approach, outcomes and successes are all underpinned by an unwavering commitment to valuing people and supporting personal best. Through my own education, upbringing, and life experiences, I know just how important it is to be supported in a nurturing educational environment, where talented teachers, inspiring leaders and compassionate role models encourage you to be your best. A quality education creates choices and opens doors, which is what I want for every person who is part of our Trust. I believe our role as educators is to help children and young adults overcome the barriers to succeed, to instil a desire to learn, and to encourage an ambition to achieve. We believe all of our people achieve their best when they feel valued and listened to, and when there is a strong sense of belonging. If we get this right, our pupils – and society as a whole – benefits enormously. Our Trust is proud to serve many varied communities, ranging from prosperous rural villages to deprived estates and towns. We believe every child who attends our academies deserves the same chance. Overcoming disadvantage is deeply rooted in our mission as a Trust, because we know everybody will achieve if we use strategies that help each child to reach their personal best. Since SHARE Multi-Academy Trust was formed, we have built a reputation for achieving the highest standards. Our aim is to be the best Trust, not the biggest. We do this by sharing best practice across our Trust, creating networks for our colleagues to learn from one another, and creating an environment where our pupils feel safe, inspired, and can truly thrive. From schools building on track records of success to those looking to make significant improvements, SHARE has supported every academy with their individual journeys of progress and growth. I hope you will consider joining us on our journey. Whether you are a parent looking for a supportive, yet ambitious school for your child; an education practitioner looking to begin or bolster your career; a school seeking to join a successful partnership; or if you are simply wanting to learn more about life at SHARE – we look forward to hearing from you.
