Do you have what it takes to work one of the top 5% of schools nationally?
If so, we want to hear from you!
Our students are amazing. They are intelligent, articulate, funny, welcoming and appreciative of great teaching. They deserve the best and we intend to make sure that this is what they receive, in every subject, every day of their school lives.
Our staff are phenomenal. They are dedicated, passionate, dynamic, caring and inspiring. We strongly feel we have a world class team and we firmly believe that in every department we have strong teams that are capable of creating the truly great school that this community deserves.
Our facilities are outstanding. With over a £10 million of investment, our school boasts state-of-the-art classrooms, fantastic IT facilities, an unrivalled on-site Sports Village which includes a full-size 3G football pitch, a skate park and a dance studio, along with a partnered Alternative Provision. This was further enhanced by a brand-new six classroom block which opened in summer 2022.
Together, this makes Baysgarth one of the top performing schools in the Humber region, with eight consecutive years of record breaking, outstanding results. Our high-ability students make more progress than in any other local school and our inclusive wraparound care for every single student nurtures them to believe in themselves and their potential and reach their ambitions, now and in the future.
To build on this, we are currently looking for a highly motivated, creative and committed Teacher of History with the skills and experience to offer outstanding experiences for students in both KS3 and KS4. The Humanities team is vibrant and dynamic, offering amazing experiences inside and outside the classroom. The suitable candidate will share this passion and drive, and have the ambition to elevate History to be the most successful subject in the school.
We are oversubscribed in almost every single year group, which reflects the first-class facilities we have on site as well as our fantastic students and staff who make the school a great place to learn. We pride ourselves on achieving outstanding outcomes in a school with an inclusive ethos that has superb pastoral care and a strong commitment to staff mental health and work-life balance.
Baysgarth continues to be a Good school that is ‘making good progress on the journey to outstanding’ according to Ofsted, who visited most recently in January 2023. Inspectors described the school to “have created an inclusive community” where “pupils are well cared for”, “have access to a wide range of enrichment opportunities”, “benefit from high-quality teaching”, along with having access to “a range of experiences that go beyond the national curriculum…experiences that they may not otherwise have had”. Leadership and governance is strong, with “a clear vision” and “high expectations”. Baysgarth is consistently one of the top performing schools in the Humber region and it is our mission to recruit the most talented staff to cement our excellent reputation.
Baysgarth School is an 11-16 comprehensive with approximately 970 pupils on roll; a number that will rise to well over 1,000 in the next few years. The successful candidate will be expected to have pride, passion, positivity and vision and a desire to ensure the school has the highest possible reputation in the local community and beyond.
