What skills and experience we're looking for

'This school is a truly special place. Pupils flourish here' Ofsted March 2022.

Is your perception that, as a boys’ grammar school, we will be overly traditional and elitist? Think again! If you

want to become part of a calm and happy school community then Lawrence Sheriff may well be the place for

you!

If you are tech-curious, hands-on and ready to start a real career then this is your opportunity to step into the

world of IT. This post is based in the IT Support Department and is the first point of call for requests made to the

IT Helpdesk, providing a basic first line of technical support. The post holder will report to and work closely with

the Director of IT Services, supporting and maintaining Lawrence Sheriff School’s IT network infrastructure and

PC hardware.

Lawrence Sheriff School is an outstanding boys’ grammar school of approximately 1200 students, around 450 of

whom are in our coeducational sixth form. As a National Teaching School, we have played a significant role in

initial teacher training and continuous professional development across the region. Our Teaching School Hub

status also enables us to offer all staff varied and interesting opportunities to enhance their practice.

'This school is a truly special place. Pupils flourish here’ (Ofsted, 2022).

Lawrence Sheriff School is a boys’ grammar school with a co-education sixth form. We have approximately 1080 students, over 380 of whom are in the sixth form. We believe that much of our success - including our consistently high Ofsted grading and our high rankings in DFE performance tables - can be directly linked to our emphasis upon LSS being a happy place to work for both pupils and staff. The 2022 Ofsted report goes on to say that ‘the passion that pupils have for their learning is palpable’ and 'there is a clear culture of mutual respect between staff and students'.These comments sum up the distinctive ethos and values of the school. As a National Teaching School, we have played a significant role in initial teacher training and continuous professional development across the region. Our Teaching School Hub status now enables us to offer all staff varied and interesting opportunities to enhance their practice.
