About the Trust The Trust was established in 2015 and provides education and enrichment activities to more than 1100 children across five Academies, located in Middlesbrough and Redcar and Cleveland local authority areas. Academies within the Trust are:

• Dormanstown Primary Academy (3 to 11 years),
• Pennyman Primary Academy (3 to 11 years), and
• Wilton Primary Academy (3 to 11 years).
About the Post Dormanstown and Wilton Primary Academies are thriving inclusive learning communities within Redcar & Cleveland. Dormanstown serves 270 pupils from Nursery to Year 6, with 40 additional places for high needs children with complex learning needs. Wilton serves 75 pupils from Nursery to Year 6. We are seeking to recruit a suitably qualified and experienced administrator to join the academy office team. The successful candidate will promote and support the vision and direction of the academies by providing day-to-day administrative support with a particular focus on pupil attendance procedures. First impressions count; our office staff set the tone for how our academies are perceived and as the first point of contact, you will need to have a confident, friendly approach. The academy offices are busy places and children, parents and staff will often require your help and support at short notice, so we expect you to be able to deliver excellent customer service, prioritise your workload and organise your time effectively. You will have good communication skills to be able to undertake conversations with pupils, parents, staff and professionals in a calm and productive manner.
We are a fabulous team and we all enjoy working together to improve outcomes for our children. We are offering a varied and challenging role in a busy and rewarding working environment with access to excellent continuous professional development, as part of a highly functioning team. Whilst the role is based at Dormanstown Primary Academy, you will be part of the wider business team serving Wilton Primary Academy. As part of Tees Valley Education Trust we firmly believe that we are ‘stronger together’ and you will be part of a wider team across the two academies and the Trust as a whole through serving the whole community as required. Both the Trust and the academies have a strong inclusive ethos and an inherent drive for quality. The best interests of the children are central to our decision making. Our children are proud academy citizens, care for each other and enjoy their learning and achievements in school. Please see the websites for further information about our academies.
