Our commitments on staffing

  • GES-registered and licensed

    Every teacher holds current GES registration and a teaching licence. We check, and we re-check annually.

  • Police-checked

    Every adult on site — teachers, assistants, drivers, kitchen and cleaning staff — is checked before they start.

  • Trained every year

    Annual child-protection training for all staff, plus in-house subject training in the days before each term opens.

  • They stay

    Eighty-nine per cent of our teaching staff were here three years ago. Your child's teacher is likely to still be here next year.
