About Murray Park Community School

Welcome, and thank you for your interest in joining our wonderful school.

Murray Park is a dynamic and forward-looking 11-16 mixed comprehensive school on the western fringes of the city of Derby. It is a Foundation Status School but has a close working relationship with the Local Authority. 

We cater for approximately 1,200 students, situated on a spacious site surrounded by greenery. We serve students from the Derby City area, within reach of the Derbyshire countryside and our cohort sizes are growing each year. 

Our students reflect the full academic ability range and there is a breadth to the socio-economic status of our families.  

Murray Park School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and therefore any offer of employment is subject to DBS clearance, satisfactory references and pre-employment checks. 


A message from the Headteacher 

It is a great privilege to lead our fantastic school. My aim is always to give the best educational experience possible in an inspirational setting. We are fully committed to offering a top-class education which keeps abreast of national and international trends.

Furthermore, our strapline: ‘Proud to be here’, encompasses how we feel about working at Murray Park as we implement our mission of: ‘Supporting students in gaining a positive outlook, shaping their futures and reaching their full potential’. It also sits hand in hand with our values: Perseverance, Respect, Independence, Dreams and Excellence. Our Ofsted judgement of Good, in September 2022, recognised that we have a "calm school" with "caring teachers"… a sound foundation in which to thrive – very much our OASIS. 

We pride ourselves on giving teachers the conditions in which to teach without distraction and ensure that all staff are supported quickly with any concerns both in and outside the classroom. 

We support all new staff with a supportive induction package. ECTs will follow the Derby City new teacher programme as well as in-house training. We endeavour to ensure your skills are developed so you can perform at your optimum. 

I wish you the best of luck with your application to our school.
