Our Staff

The staff at Welland Park comprises a highly committed and well-established group of professionals.

All members of our teaching staff are specialists in their area of the curriculum and many of them have joined us from previous careers in 11 – 16 or 11 – 18 schools. We believe in developing learning for life at Welland Park and all staff take a holistic view of their role in the education of our youngsters.

“The extensive curriculum and good teaching enable students to develop workplace and other skills that will contribute to their future economic well – being exceptionally well.” OfSTED 2009

All staff participate in a rigorous whole school programme of training in relevant areas such as literacy, curriculum developments and action research in pedagogy. Additionally, many of our staff proactively seek to develop themselves as practitioners by undertaking training for OfSTED, NASEN, awarding bodies e.g. OCR and the National College of Teaching and Leadership, NCTL. The teaching staff are supported by an excellent team of administrative and site staff who also know our youngsters as individuals.
