Our school has
been on a continuous upward trajectory for a number of years. In the summers of
2022 and 2023, our Year 11 cohorts achieved Progress 8 scores putting us in the
top 10 in the county. In the summer of 2024, based on student progress, we
placed in the top 8.1% of schools nationally.
As a community
that develops personal growth, excellence and achievement for all, we are
incredibly proud of everything the school has become and what we have achieved
in the last few years: our well-rounded young people who have gone on to
purposeful and challenging further education, some of the best GCSE results in
the county and our recent Ofsted report (February 2026).
The Ofsted
report states “The school is a warm, welcoming community where pupils are
respected and well cared for. Pupils flourish academically. Pupils take their
learning seriously and relish the challenge of academic study. Classrooms buzz
with learning.” We were delighted to achieve Strong Standard in Leadership
& Governance, Curriculum & Teaching and Achievement.
We are also
hugely proud of our staff who are relentlessly hardworking, supportive of one
another and passionately committed to securing the best possible life chances
for the young people we serve.
We pride
ourselves on high expectations of students, recognising and rewarding students
for getting it right every day, being at the forefront of latest research,
ensuring nothing but the best for our pupils and staff. We have a restorative
justice approach to managing student behaviour and always believe that a young
person can bounce back from a mistake and transform their behaviour.
We are
seeking an individual with a fervent passion for supporting young people to be
the best they can possibly be and with a ‘do whatever it takes’ attitude. You
should be prepared to challenge and support our students as and when required.
This role is an exciting opportunity for you to join our pastoral team as a non-teaching member of staff and help further our vision. You will be Head of one year group or two year groups depending on their position within the school. It will require huge amounts of perseverance and a constant drive for innovative excellence but will also be incredibly rewarding and will offer exciting progression for the future.
