The successful applicant should have good time management skills, be able to meet deadlines, be empathetic, as well as having a flexible approach to work as priorities could change at short notice. Excellent organisation and teamwork skills are vital to ensure a unified and successful job share partnership.

What the school offers its staff
St John’s is a very successful co-ed Catholic school with over 1300 students including c.300 in our Sixth Form. We have a very strong Catholic ethos and pride ourselves in being a warm and welcoming community, something that was externally recognised in our most recent Section 48 Inspection of January 2020, where we achieved ‘Outstanding Catholic School’ status. The school’s 2023 Progress 8 score of +0.33 was the sixth consecutive examination year that the school achieved a positive score on this key performance measure and a wonderful reflection of the talented and dedicated students and staff we have at the school. We are also projected to receive a positive Progress 8 score for 2024 (Progress 8 outcomes will be released by the government later this month).
This is an excellent and exciting time to join our thriving Catholic community and be part of a highly enthusiastic, forward thinking and supportive team.
