At The Misbourne we acknowledge that teaching is a demanding profession and therefore looking after our staff is of highest priority. If you join our staff team, you will be part of a caring, kind and supportive group of professionals who really do share a sense of belonging and camaraderie. We actively look at ways to give staff time back, whether this be with our two week October half term, a personal 'Headspace Day', a flexible PPA which you can take at home every fortnight, or flexible use of gained time in the summer term.We have a fully planned and resourced centralised curriculum across all subjects, meaning we do not expect teachers to go home and do individual planning. We have development time across the year so that curriculum teams can
collaboratively plan and talk about teaching; continuing to develop professionally and reducing workload. We use the summer term to gain time to plan ahead, once again meaning that the summer holiday can indeed be a proper break from teaching.
