Are you an ambitious and passionate educator ready to make a lasting impact on the lives of young people?

 This is a role for someone who thrives on challenge and is driven by purpose. At John Mason School, we are on an exciting journey of improvement, and we are seeking an exceptional Progress Leader to shape the experience of one of our Key Stage 3 or Key Stage 4 year groups.

 Ofsted (2024) recognised that leaders “understand the improvements that need to be made” and that “appropriate plans are in place to ensure the school improves pupil outcomes”. We are now looking for a leader who will play a pivotal role in turning these plans into reality. Someone with the vision, resilience and determination to lead meaningful change. You will inspire both staff and students through a relentless belief in what is possible, helping to build a culture where every learner can thrive and achieve their full potential.

 The successful candidate will be an outstanding classroom practitioner with strong leadership, organisational and interpersonal skills. You will lead a team of tutors and a pastoral manager, fostering a collaborative, high-performing team committed to continuous improvement and exceptional outcomes for all.

 If you are a passionate, driven professional who excels at unlocking student potential, you will thrive in our school, which has a reputation for good pastoral care, personal development, and ambition for our students.

 In return we will offer you:

·      a comprehensive programme of professional development

·      the satisfaction of being part of a friendly, supportive and reflective team

·      well-resourced schemes of learning that will reduce workload

·      students who have a desire to achieve and respect the school’s expectations.

·      excellent care and support for all staff.
