Why join us
The Coastal Collaborative Trust (CCT) is a thriving multi-academy trust making a profound difference for students and communities across the Fylde Coast. We’re passionate about what we do, and we’re looking for individuals who share our drive!
We launched in March 2024, rapidly growing from Hodgson Academy and our four pioneering partners. We’ve now welcomed Blackpool Sixth Form College, Lytham St Anne’s High School, McKee College House and Chadwick High School. Our shared vision is to create an educational ecosystem that’s truly “greater than the sum of its parts” – a powerful force deeply serving local students, families, and businesses. We’re committed to preparing every student for a successful life beyond education and enriching our vibrant local communities.
At our heart, we nurture a love of learning, raise aspirations, and improve life chances for all students. We achieve this by delivering an ambitious, inclusive curriculum that challenges and engages every learner. We’re passionately committed to recruiting and investing in high-calibre staff (that’s you!), and providing a caring, supportive environment where both students and staff can truly thrive, reach their full potential, and feel valued.
Our core values drive everything we do, shaping our culture and informing every decision:
- Aspiration with Integrity: We encourage ambitious goals, always pursued with honesty and strong moral principles.
- Enthusiasm for Excellence: We approach our work with passion and a relentless drive for outstanding results in all areas.
- Inclusion and Opportunity: We are dedicated to ensuring every individual feels valued and has equitable access to opportunities for growth and success.
- Respect and Kindness: We foster a community built on mutual respect and compassionate interactions.
- Collaboration and Community: We believe in the power of working together, building strong relationships within our schools and with the wider community.
If you’re a passionate educator or professional who embodies these values, if you’re eager to contribute to a growing, innovative, and deeply community-focused trust, and if you’re ready to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of education on the Fylde Coast, we warmly encourage you to explore the opportunities within the CCT.
