As North Star Academy looks to recruit new staff - including teachers and Learning Support Assistants (LSA) - Project Lead Ollie Benzie reflects on his own journey and how his employer has helped him develop as a leader, and a person.

North Star Academy Trust’s Project Lead Ollie Benzie explains how educators need to consider a pupil’s past - with a trauma-informed approach - to guide them to a brighter future.
