Head of MFL job summary

Dear Applicant,

Thank you for your interest in the post of Head of MFL at Wootton Academy Trust. We are two institutions on the western edge of Bedford that work closely together to educate over 1600 students: Wootton Upper School for Year 9 -11 pupils and neighbouring Kimberley Sixth Form STEM College for students in years 12 and 13.

We are at an exciting time in our development. From 2026 our Upper School will become a Year 7 – 11 secondary and grow over time from 900 to 1350 students. Kimberley is also significantly oversubscribed and growing to 800 students and beyond. The opportunities that come from this are huge.

However, we have lots of things we must do better right now for our students and the local community. We want to run superb schools with great outcomes for all students, enabled by a high-performing, happy staff body, and a reputation as a great place to learn and work. We are working hard to build a strong culture based on great attendance and behaviour by students. And we are developing a curriculum that is ambitious and knowledge-rich, recognises the importance of subject disciplines, and immerses students in the best that has been thought and said.

If you share our passion for knowledge and handing it on to future generations, and are motivated to find out more about us, then please visit our website or get in touch with us for a chat. Details of the application process are at the end of this recruitment pack. We look forward to receiving your application.

I look forward to receiving your application.

Yours sincerely,

Mark Lehain

Executive Headteacher
