What skills and experience we're looking for

We are seeking to appoint a well-qualified, enthusiastic Sociology teacher who is committed to transforming the lives of young people in the Leeds City region. Our standards and expectations are high and we expect our new staff to lead our continuing drive for excellence in the classroom. Sociology is a very popular subject in the college with currently 197 A level students on roll. This opportunity does present the successful candidate with a fantastic opportunity to demonstrate their value in a thriving and growing organisation. An ability to contribute to the teaching of Further Sociology would be helpful but not essential.

What the school offers its staff

This is an exciting opportunity for candidates who are keen to be at the centre of our organisational change. The last few years have been exceptional for The GORSE Academies Trust and we are incredibly proud that Elliott Hudson College has been judged as ‘outstanding’ in all areas, by Ofsted in March 2018. Elliott Hudson College is a 16-19, co-educational college which opened in 2015 and now has a student population of 1075 Year 12 and 13 ‘A’ Level students. The college is housed in brand new, state-of-the-art accommodation at The White Rose Office Park, Millshaw Park Lane, Leeds, LS11 0LT.

Commitment to safeguarding

Our organisation is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults. We expect all staff, volunteers and trustees to share this commitment.

Our recruitment process follows the keeping children safe in education guidance.

Elliott Hudson College has a mission to ensure that its students receive an exceptional education. We are looking for professionals who want to work in a college that focuses on high expectations, challenge and rigour but aligned closely with personal responsibility and pastoral care. Together these values will instil in young people a self-belief that enables them to access the highest standard of higher educational provision and employment.

Through this approach Elliott Hudson College is becoming a catalyst for social change, transforming opportunities for the young people in the communities it serves. We are determined, through the establishment of this college, to ensure that poverty and deprivation should in no way limit either the quality of a young person’s educational experience or the levels of achievement to which those students are able to rise.
