PDET employs over 900 people across its 31 academies and Northampton central office. It is our intention to grow further in the next two years.
Although PDET is a large multi academy trust those of us in the central team pride ourselves on knowing our academies and our employees well.
Not all our employees describe themselves as regular church attenders, but feel that they are able to subscribe to the values that we consider important to academies / schools that set out to achieve outstanding education within a distinctly Christian ethos. It is a commonly used phrase to say, “our employees are our greatest asset” however, we feel that in our case it goes beyond just words. We support our employees in many different ways.
PDET has developed cluster working through a formal programme, which is facilitating our academies / schools and their employees to work together on all kinds of curriculum and educational developments. We regard this as a strength of our Trust.
We hope that you are interested in finding out more about joining our MAT and contributing to the education of our pupils.
