The school is a mainstream Secondary School with a supportive cover team and teaching staff. The school is going from strength to strength and providing CPD throughout the year. Our school is easily accessible by road (M60, M61, M62, M66), so this position is ideal for colleagues based in Greater Manchester, Lancashire or West Yorkshire. Our school boasts a rich history and heritage and is proud of its traditions.
Behaviour on the whole is extremely good and any isolated issues are dealt with by a positive, pro-active “on call” team with a wealth of experience in pastoral matters. All teachers have a Form and this position comes with a lovely Year 12 form.
