Given the dynamic nature of the role and structure of TCAT, it must be accepted that, as the Trust’s work develops and changes, there will be a need for adjustments to the role and responsibilities of the post. The duties specified above are, therefore, not to be regarded as either exclusive or exhaustive. They may change from time to time commensurate with the grading level of the post and following consultation with the member of staff.

TCAT is committed to equality and diversity for all members of society. The trust will take action to discharge this responsibility but many of the actions will rely on individual staff members at the Trust embracing their responsibilities with such a commitment and ensuring a positive and collaborative approach to Equality and Diversity. This will require staff to support TCAT’s initiatives on Equality and Diversity which will include embracing development and training designed to enhance practices and the experiences of staff, students and visitors to the trust with an all-inclusive approach that celebrates differences.

Failure to embrace these commitments may lead to formal action. If you as a member of staff identify how you or the academy trust can improve its practice on Equality and Diversity, please contact the Chief Operating Officer.

All members of staff have a duty to maintain safe and clean conditions in their work area and co-operate with TCAT on matters of Health and Safety. This will include assisting with undertaking risk assessments and carrying out appropriate actions as required. Staff are required to refer to the Trust and safety policies in respect to their specific duties and responsibilities.
