What skills and experience we're looking for
Uffculme is a happy and friendly school with high ambitions for every student. We are fully inclusive but are relentless in our determination that every child should fulfil their potential. Our reputation and outcomes speak for themselves, and although we are regularly the top performing comprehensive school in the region, we refuse to be complacent. We want to be the best school we possibly can be and are always looking for ways in which we can develop and improve.
If you share these aspirations and believe you can contribute to our continued success, I would be delighted to receive your application. In return we can offer you support from an excellent team of colleagues where morale is high, and there are fantastic facilities with young people who genuinely want to learn.
What the school offers its staff
Uffculme School is a popular, high performing Academy located on the beautiful Devon/Somerset border with easy motorway access to the regional centres of Taunton and Exeter.
The February 2014 Ofsted inspection classed the Academy as ‘Outstanding’. We are a fully comprehensive school and committed to inclusion. In 2019 (the last year when league tables were issued) our Progress 8 score was +0.7, with disadvantaged pupils achieving +0.47; maintaining our track record as being one of the highest performing non-selective schools in the country. Consequently, we have received many national awards and accolades over recent times in recognition of the quality of the education provided here at Uffculme.
Whilst our examination results speak for themselves, they don’t tell the whole story. They are based on a culture of high expectations; exceptional levels of student participation and active involvement in the life of the school; and great relationships between staff and students.
We make no apologies for wanting it all as a school; happy staff, happy students, outstanding results, amazing opportunities, and a culture which rewards and values success in all its forms.
Commitment to safeguarding
Uffculme School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We particularly welcome applications from under represented groups including ethnicity, gender, transgender, age, disability, sexual orientation or religion.
As part of our due diligence process when shortlisting, we may carry out an online search of publicly available material to identify any incidents or issues which we might want to explore with the applicant at interview.
