What the school offers its staff
The Market Bosworth School is incredibly proud of its students and staff. We have excellent academic standards and work hard to create a safe and enjoyable learning environment for all. We have been recognised as an “Outstanding” school by Ofsted 3 times, in 2009, 2012 and 2018. We are one of just 18 secondary schools nationally to be named as a Lead school for the DfE Behaviour Hub programme, helping others develop a positive culture via school to school support.
This is an exciting time for The Market Bosworth School, as we build on our now established GCSE achievements of the last 6 years. For the last 3 years of published results, we have been the highest attaining school in Leicestershire. In 2022, 50% of all students gained a GCSE grade 9 to 7 in English and our overall school P8 progress score was +0.96.
We are ideally placed for commuting from a wide area, being situated about twenty minutes from Leicester in the rural and picturesque village of Market Bosworth. Whilst the majority of our staff live within Leicestershire, we have a number who commute daily from Warwickshire, Derbyshire, and Staffordshire.
Commitment to safeguarding
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. The recruitment process is robust in seeking to establish the commitment of candidates to support the school’s measures to safeguard children and to identify, deter or reject people who might pose a risk of harm to children or are otherwise unsuited to work with them. An enhanced DBS with a Barred list check is essential. It is an offence to apply for the role if the applicant is barred from engaging in regulated activity relevant to children (KCSIE 2023).
