Since its inception, MPCT has for me confirmed that young people from all types of backgrounds can and do succeed in the right environment. It has been my privilege to witness young people make the very difficult transition from childhood to adulthood and develop into positive, productive role models in their own right. They become members of their communities and are able to contribute emotionally and economically.

Staff Support and Benefits
The staff support benefits are outstanding and clearly show how staff are valued and rewarded.
Most staff benefits are available once a staff member has successfully completed a probationary period. However, staff are supported from day 1 with training, development, advice, and guidance. The benefit package at MPCT includes the following:
Group Life Cover:
All staff have life assurance with GROUP LIFE cover in place. This policy pays out 3 times the annual salary should the worst ever happen.
Wellbeing Payments:
MPCT employees are given £15 a month towards a wellbeing activity. Creating a good work life balance is important to keeping staff healthy and motivated.
Excellent Annual Leave:
All teaching or programme staff receive 8 weeks of holiday, through shutdown periods. All support staff receive 6 weeks holiday on a flexi basis.
Health Insurance
We insure all employees who have completed their 6 month probation with healthcare cover.
Competitive Salary:
MPCT review salaries annually and benchmark against other training providers within the network. This ensures we are providing excellent salaries.
Work Based Pension:
Staff are enrolled on a work based pension scheme and the company contribute above the national minimum.
The MPCT Pride Awards recognise the exceptional contributions many of our staff had to make in order to make the necessary transitions at the beginning of the first lockdown in March.
Teams were invited to nominate colleagues who had gone above and beyond expectations in their work, commitment, and engagement. Over 100 staff members have been recognised, with some staff receiving more than one award.
