Staff
CfBT Education Trust supports each of its schools and nurseries with a dedicated team of professionals. Danesfield Manor School can offer a speech and language therapist, counsellor, educational psychologist and tutoring service should the need arise. This is all part of our aim to provide a complete service. The school itself employs specialist staff including sports coaches and specialist music, science and language teachers.
We rely on being able to employ the right teachers, and our recruitment procedures are rigorous. Although many schools struggle to find staff, we have never found this a problem. Nor is staff retention an issue: we have a number of long-serving highly committed staff.
Each week we hold training courses for teachers throughout south-east England. Our own teachers can opt to attend any of these courses, which are led by national educational experts, and this further develops their skills and talents.
We have recently been awarded Investor in People status, reflecting our approach to people management and the opportunities we offer. Our staff find the school a good working environment, with regular training and continuing fresh challenges. We expect a lot from the staff!
