Meet The Team

The Excellence Cluster has various teams working across the city of Plymouth. They are school-based staff and the MAST team. All our professional staff are experienced and qualified. They all hold professional liability insurance and many are  members of the appropriate professional organisations. All members of the Cluster team are fully supervised by qualified professionals and receive regular up-to-date training in all the key mandatory, statutory and professional development needs required when working with young people. Our team are supported by a capable and organised administrative department who ensure the smooth running of the organisation ably supported by PLP CiC.
