"Pupils are proud of the diversity represented within their school. They animatedly described ‘the power of you’ days where they celebrate each other’s cultures and faiths. Pupils said that everyone is free to be themselves. This creates a sense of belonging which helps pupils to feel happy in school. Polite and respectful interactions between pupils and adults are the norm. Pupils embrace opportunities to make changes for the benefit of others. Pupils appreciate the care that staff have taken to ensure that the diversity of the school community is reflected in the school’s high-quality curriculum. The school has high expectations of pupils’ achievement. Most pupils achieve well. Staff are overwhelmingly proud to work at the school.'" Ofsted 2024

We are looking to appoint a PE Technician to provide support to teaching staff within our PE department with the day to day running of lessons and PE activities. The ideal candidate will have a strong interest in physical activity/sport and a qualification in coaching would be advantageous.

GCSE or equivalent qualification in English and Maths is essential for this post.

Promoting self-esteem, encouraging pupils to act independently and supporting academic and personal development are all vital to this role.

Successful candidates will need to have high expectations of all pupils’ attainment and behaviour, and be willing to immerse themselves in all aspects of school life.

If you are someone with enthusiasm and determination to get the best out of each pupil, this role is for you.

Candidates must be available to work 8.15 am to 4.00 pm (with a 30 minute unpaid break). Some flexibility will be required.
