Welcome to Great Academy Ashton

GAA is genuinely a GREAT school filled with professional, experienced and dedicated staff. 

Our staff are supported and trained to be the best they possibly can be for our students and to support each other.  We have many career opportunities for new and existing staff with extensive CPD programmes.  We are always pleased to receive CVs and other details from people interested in working with us.

We are located just outside the great global city of Manchester, where we work closely with our partner schools, with local and national businesses, and a vast range of community groups.  All staff are encouraged to join their professional body groups, from The Chartered College of Teaching to the Mathematical Association.  Whichever professional body is suitable for your role, we will fund your membership so that you gain the best, most up to date, professional knowledge. 

If you wish to be a part of a values based, community focussed, ethically led organisation, we want to hear from you!
