Work With Us

Delivering a high-quality education starts with a high-quality team of educators. We are always looking for motivated, collaborative people to join our team and offer a competitive suite of benefits to ensure that you are supported in your work with us. Our staff are encouraged to continually take on new challenges, so we offer a wide range of professional development resources and opportunities.

Spencer academies share an ambition to deliver results that compete with the very highest performing schools in the country and deliver a curriculum for students that is underpinned by breadth, opportunity and quality: one that seeks to give young people the opportunity to develop into well-rounded global citizens that believe they can influence positive change in the world.

SAT is an educational charity, multi-academy trust and sponsor of academies.

We have over 18,000 children and young people in our academies and employ more than 2,500 teachers, leaders and educational support professionals across the East Midlands. We aspire to be a leading regional high performing trust with a national reputation for excellence.

We currently have 17 primary academies, eight secondary academies and one primary-aged special school in our family of schools. We are opening one new Free Schools in pre-operations. All our academies share our values and beliefs, and all benefit from the collaboration and added value that being a member of our Trust offers.

SAT also is a newly registered provider of apprenticeships and has recently been announced as a designated regional Teaching School Hub.
