Belper School and Sixth Form Centre is an exceptional place. We combine strong academic standards, a rich & inspirational curriculum, and a caring & supportive ethos to provide the best education we can for our wonderful students. We also like to think we are a great place to work, and Ofsted agreed. (“Staff are happy and proud to work at the school. Leaders are considerate of staff’s workload and well-being” OFSTED, 2022)
The
school has been proud to serve the thriving community of Belper and surrounding
villages for over 50 years. Belper in Derbyshire is on the edge of the Peak
District with good road and rail links to other parts of the country. It is
situated in the Derwent Valley World Heritage Site and has previously won the
Best High Street and Market Town in the UK award. Belper has a creative and
inclusive community and hosts an annual arts festival and a very popular Pride
event.
We
prioritise staff wellbeing and understand how this links to our staff retention
remaining high. The Senior Leadership Team are always visible in school,
working hard to bring out the best in our staff. We have a strong and committed
governing body who take their roles and responsibilities seriously.
At Belper School we believe passionately in an inclusive approach to education and in promoting the personal development of every student. We have a distinctive ethos, which marks us out from many other schools. While we value academic achievement and strong exam results, we also believe it is our duty to create responsible citizens for the future. Self-respect and respect for others are central to that belief.
We
keep the students at the school central to the decisions we make. Our students
kind and visitors often comment on the very positive feel of the school. Their
conduct in lessons and around the site is excellent. (“Lessons are calm and orderly” OFSTED,
2022) Belper is a school where teachers can truly focus on teaching.
Belper
School and Sixth Form Centre is committed to safeguarding and promoting the
welfare of children and young people, and expects all staff and volunteers to

online searches will be conducted for shortlisted candidates, and successful
appointments are subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check

opportunities.
