We are renowned for offering a diverse and exciting curriculum, enriched with both UK-based and international trips. Our students don't just learn in classrooms — they travel, explore, and engage in unforgettable experiences in locations such as Miami, New York, San Francisco, and across Europe. These journeys help them build confidence, gain cultural awareness, and develop essential life and business skills. From designing and launching their own business ideas to collaborating with peers and local industry professionals, our students are immersed in real-world projects that ignite creativity and nurture entrepreneurial spirit.

You will work closely with colleagues to shape the curriculum, support trip planning, and help continue to elevate the student experience. You will be working in a vibrant and supportive environment, with a collaborative team culture that is focussed on innovation and growth.
