About our School

Endeavour Academy is an academy within Nexus Multi Academy Trust.

Endeavour Academy is a successful and passionately child-centred special school for children and young people with Moderate Learning Difficulties, ASD and Social and Emotional Health issues.

Endeavour Academy has strong partnerships with other schools within Nexus Multi Academy Trust and across Nottinghamshire.

At Endeavour Academy, we believe in holistic support for children and families, with a focus on all aspects of a child's life: their education, their welfare, and their social needs; we are looking for a Deputy Headteacher who not only shares our values, but who actively pursues their delivery.
