Permanent contract

Archbishop Ilsley are looking to recruit a Faculty Support to join our high achieving RS Department and to help our teachers deliver a high quality of education to our pupils so that they can use their God given talent to succeed academically.

The role would suit someone who is either working in a school and would like a pupil facing role or someone who is thinking about becoming a teacher. The successful candidate may have recently left university; on the other hand, it may suit someone who is more experienced but is looking for a change of environment or sector.

We are looking for someone to cover lessons and to provide support to a faculty within Archbishop Ilsley. The successful candidate would be expected to support and uphold the Catholic ethos of our school.

Archbishop Ilsley is a large, oversubscribed Catholic Secondary School in Acocks Green, on the border of Hall Green and Yardley, that caters for pupils between the ages of 11 and 18. There are 210 pupils in each year and the Sixth Form is predicted to grow considerably over the next five years. OFSTED rated the school ‘good’ when they last visited in June 2018. Our GCSE results are strong and over 50% of last year’s Year 13 received a grade B; 25% achieved an A or A*.

Closing date: Friday 24th April 2026 at 9:00am
