Opportunities to volunteer/work placements

This job is brought to you by Jobs/Redefined, the UK's leading over-50s age inclusive jobs board.

Are you able to volunteer your time during school hours? Do you enjoy working with primary and/or secondary-aged students? Perhaps you would like to complete a work/university placement within our organisation? At Leigh Academies Trust, we highly value the contribution that our volunteers and work placement candidates can make to our childrens' learning and cultural experiences throughout the academic year. We are seeking volunteers to join our academies who can support in a variety of ways; whether it be with reading and writing at primary level, more specific subject knowledge at secondary level, or within a central office department. If this is something you are interested in, please submit an application!

The duties that you are able to support us with will vary between academies and will be discussed with you on a case-by-case basis. We will also agree locations that you can feasibly travel to.

Our Commitment to Safeguarding, Equality & Diversity

Leigh Academies Trust and all of our academies are committed to ensuring the highest levels of safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our pupils, and we expect all our staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We adopt a fair, robust and consistent recruitment process across all academies and business units which is inline with Keeping Children Safe in Education guidance. This includes online checks for shortlisted candidates - you can read more about it on our Careers site. All offers of employment are subject to an Enhanced DBS check, references, and where applicable, a prohibition from teaching check.

As a Trust, we are passionate about diversity and recognise that as individuals, we all bring something unique to the role regardless of any protected characteristics which is why we treat all of our people equally, without compromise. We are committed to providing equality and fairness throughout our recruitment and employment practices and not discriminating on any grounds.
