* First Aid
The teachers are awesome, even when they tell us to be quiet.
The admin team are second to none. They always find the answer you need and help you when you are disorganised.
Markeaton is a great school to work at. I love every day.
Our school does not have any employees which earn over £100,000 on an annual basis.
