Thank you for your interest in the position of Learning Support Assistant (2 days).

Our school has been on a continuous upward trajectory for a number of years. In the summers of 2022 and 2023, our Year 11 cohorts achieved Progress 8 scores putting us in the top 10 in the county. In the summer of 2024, based on student progress, we placed in the top 8.1% of schools nationally. Our SEND students significantly out-perform their peers nationally.

As a community that develops personal growth, excellence and achievement for all, we are incredibly proud of everything the school has become and what we have achieved in the last few years: our well-rounded young people who have gone on to purposeful and challenging further education, some of the best GCSE results in the county and our recent Ofsted report.

We are also hugely proud of our staff who are relentlessly hardworking, supportive of one another and passionately committed to securing the best possible life chances for the young people we serve.

Our SEND Team does whatever it takes to support our children with additional needs: whether reinforcing the learning of small groups of students, supporting in the Learning Centre, delivering interventions or adding additional pastoral capacity. This role is an exciting opportunity for you to join our team and help further our vision. It will require huge amounts of perseverance and a constant drive for innovative excellence but will also be incredibly rewarding and will offer exciting progression for the future.
