Caister Academy is an 11-16 co-educational day school, specialising in Literature and the performing arts.  We offer a rigorous, traditional curriculum; supplemented by a broad choice from the arts, technology, and sport; all personalised to the strengths of individual students.

Located half an hour from Norwich, on the beautiful Norfolk coast in the picturesque village of Caister-on-Sea, we have excellent access to the famous Norfolk Broads, local seaside towns, and picture postcard views of the sea.  We are proud to serve at the heart of our community, and through our core values of ambition, opportunity, character, and community, seek to do so in all that we do.  

In March 2015, we joined the Creative Education Trust.  This provides us with immediate access to a national network of support, whilst retaining the autonomy to make the decisions that are best for our students.  We work closely with other local Creative Education Trust schools, and as a family, have the resources and support to find and develop the potential of every individual.  

Caister Academy's 2024 Ofsted report praises the school with a "Good" in all categories, notably capturing that "Pupils know how to behave, and they do so well." The report also states that the "classrooms are quiet spaces which are highly conducive to learning".

Our people are our greatest asset and Caister Academy currently employs over 80 staff and is major employer within the community. You will be joining a well-established team of practitioners, all with the same vision of making a difference, shaping our school/education system, teaching, and developing children, and creating a school where no one is disadvantaged.With a robust CPD package which operates at many levels and ensure that it captures the needs of all roles and career stages, continually adapting to an ever-changing professional landscape.

It is the aim of Caister Academy and Creative Education Trust to be an Employer of Choice not just by offering strong employee relations but also good pay and recognition, diversity, and equality of opportunity, as well as staff well-being.

Yours Faithfully,

Helen Seath
