Why This Role Matters
You aren't just cleaning rooms; you are providing the foundation of care that allows our community to work and study effectively.

- The ability to work efficiently and independently within an allocated timeframe.
- An understanding of basic health and safety protocols (full training will be provided).
- A practical commitment to our school’s twin values of Everyone Learning and Everyone Caring.
- A respectful, team-focused attitude.
The "Why Us" Difference
- A climate of care: We genuinely prioritise the health, safety, and wellbeing of our site team, treating you as a professional partner in our community.
- Stunning environment: You will be working within our unique, historic site set in beautiful parkland just five miles east of Oxford.
- Respectful culture: Your contribution is highly visible and deeply valued by the colleagues and students who rely on the standards you set every single day.

Education has the power to change lives, communities and society for the better. At RLT we believe that we can achieve more for our pupils, trainees, staff and communities by working together rather than alone. Schools in RLT are united by a common belief in the benefits of working together, and by our commitment to shared principles.
OUR VISION is for our schools and SCITT to improve rapidly, continuously and sustainably: to be better faster together.
OUR ‘WHY?’ is that children and young people ‘only get one go’ in school and therefore as part of RLT we aim to ensure the best possible ‘go’ for our pupils.
OUR ‘HOW?’ is through the highest support and challenge for our schools and each other, underpinned by our principles.
Our employees benefit from a wide variety of support including extensive continuing professional learning and development opportunities, wellbeing and staff networks and access to Defined Benefit Pension Schemes (TPS and LGPS) for all staff. For more information on what it is like to work for the Trust, and the benefits you could access, please see our “Working in RLT” guide.
