Bacon's College was established in the Surrey Docks peninsula in Rotherhithe, South East London in 1991 as a City Technology College, becoming an academy in 2007 and joined the United Learning Trust in 2018. Bacon's has long been an important part of the fabric of the local community in south east London and has served the community in its various forms for over three hundred years. We are proud of that history and contribution and of the way the College has evolved and adapted to meet the needs of its young people.
Bacon's is a thriving community that is welcoming of students of all faiths and those of none. Staff and students value the distinctive nature of its Christian ethos to which every member of its community contributes. It celebrates the differences that define it as well as the common humanity that unites all its members. The value system and ethos of Bacon's is inclusive of all within a strong Christian ethos, characterised by the quality and openness of the positive relationships between students, staff and the wider community. These are foregrounded in our lessons but also in our extra-curricular offer, ranging from sport and debating to charity work and peer mediation.
Today, Bacon's sits in modern and well-equipped facilities in an area that is rapidly changing and growing. We are fortunate to offer fantastic media and IT facilities and excellent sporting provision. Learning is at the heart of everything we do, and we have the highest aspirations for our students, determined that they can achieve and overcome any barriers that may lie in their path. A significant proportion of our students go on to university each year and a culture of aspiration and achievement is evident.
Bacon's is embarking on a rapid improvement journey and many of the elements are already in place to make it a fantastic place to work and make an impact.

The role
Bacon's College is home to the United Learning South East London Cluster. The Cluster staff serve four United Learning schools: Bacon's College, Sedgehill Academy, The John Roan School and Conisborough College.
You will be responsible for the implementation of the marketing and digital communications plans across four schools within the South-East London cluster of United Learning. You will proactively manage and grow the digital communications channels for the cluster schools through the collation and creation of social media content that supports overall pupil and staff recruitment objectives and builds positive reputations within local communities.

You will have a friendly and polite manner and will enjoy the opportunity to engage with staff across the four schools. Outstanding interpersonal skills are essential in support of building excellent relationships with staff at all levels, whilst always ensuring that safeguarding practices for a safer workforce are consistently applied and monitored. You will be able to input data accurately and produce reports for the senior leadership team and governors as needed.
You will join a friendly and supportive team that is hard-working and close knit with a shared mission of providing excellence to the schools it serves.
United Learning
Bacon's College joined United Learning in Spring 2018, a large, and growing, group of schools aiming to offer a life-changing education to children and young people across England.
Our schools work as a team and achieve more by sharing than any single school could. Our subject specialists, our Group-wide intranet, our own curriculum and our online learning portal all help us share knowledge and resource, helping to simplify work processes and manage workloads for an improved work-life balance.
As a Group, we can reward our staff better: with good career opportunities, better pay, benefits, and ultimately, the satisfaction of helping children to succeed. We invest in our staff's wellbeing. Our academies each have at least eight INSET days per year (with three of those solely dedicated to planning), and an ongoing group-wide well-being programme. It's an ethos we call 'the best in everyone'.
