Minerva Learning Trust is an expanding Sheffield based multi-academy Trust with a vision of providing outstanding education for all the students within our schools. The Trust is passionate that all students should see their time at school as happy and fulfilling with their potential developed to the utmost. 

Netherthorpe School is a popular 11-18 school in Staveley, Chesterfield. We pride ourselves on being an inclusive school for all. We regard all staff and pupils as part of our family and whilst we have really high expectations of everyone, we maintain a caring and supportive ethos.

  • Have high expectations of young people regarding learning, independence and behaviour
  • Be able to forge positive links and relationships with young people, parents and colleagues
