This post is available in September 2023 and offers an exciting opportunity to join an enthusiastic staff and very supportive department whose members are committed to making a real difference. The school was last fully inspected by Ofsted in May 2011 and we were awarded Outstanding. The report is available on our website. We are very proud of our achievements and prior to the pandemic had regularly been congratulated by the Minister of State for Schools on our achievements at GCSE level placing us in the top 100 non-selective state-funded schools in England. In addition, we were in the top 100 for students achieving the English Baccalaureate. We have also regularly been in the top 10% nationally (out of over 2,500 schools and colleges) for our A level performance assessed by ALPS.
We are looking for a passionate individual to help us to ensure that in every way Bullers Wood remains an excellent school and that every one of our students flourishes, achieves and exceeds expectations.
The successful candidate will join Bullers Wood at an exciting time as September 2018 saw the opening of a new secondary free school, Bullers Wood School for Boys, who have now moved into their brand-new permanent building. Our two schools led to the establishment of the Bullers Wood Multi Academy Trust, giving opportunities for enhanced professional and career development for colleagues working within the Trust. The successful candidate may be required to work at either school.
