Ladybridge High School is a warm, friendly and successful school with a clear mission and agreed beliefs that are shared across the school community. We are focused on achieving strong academic outcomes through a rounded education that prepares our learners for life. We are committed to our ‘Trivium’ approach to education, which is summarised on our website here. The wonderfully diverse population of learners, the emphasis on professional learning for staff and the friendly atmosphere make Ladybridge an interesting and enjoyable place to work.
We strongly believe in allowing our staff to carry out their role to a high standard, whilst having a genuine work life balance which is why our full-time pastoral staff have the option of a compressed working pattern which offers a ‘flexi afternoon’ once a fortnight, where they are free to leave school site at lunchtime which is an option available for this post.
