What skills and experience we're looking for

Mount St Mary’s is a successful and oversubscribed inner city school located in the very heart of the city. Drawing from three of the four compass points the school flourishes in an atmosphere of engagement and aspiration drawing hugely upon the experiences of our incredibly diverse community.

In April 2019 the school underwent a Section 48 Inspection gaining an overall judgement of Good with Outstanding. The report comments "Students are polite, confident and respectful in the way they treat each other and interact with staff and visitors. They are .. highly articulate and proud of their school and their personal achievements. Behaviour in school is excellent and a strength of the school as it reflects its Catholic character."

Our recent Section 5 OFSTED Inspection (10/2019) graded our school as 'Good' in all areas. It described us as a joyful place, with an authentic mission...clearly embraced by all the school community and foragers a passion... for desiring to give back. Leaders have developed a nurturing school, one in which there is a strong sense of responsibility towards each other. We have a well-established reputation for our care, guidance and support ensuring all learners are afforded a high level of structure and personalised development.

October 2023 saw the school assessed for Excellence in Pupil Development. The award stating: “The most immediate strength identified was that of an all-pervading atmosphere of friendliness, calmness and inclusion. Most schools can achieve this at certain times or in certain areas, but in Mount St Mary’s it was ubiquitous . . . The impact of the School’s work on pupils’ development is enormous. Not only are they, by their own and their parents’ claims, developing to be a new generation of young leaders, but the School is now showing very impressive academic results, to the point where, in 2023, it had the best progress at 16 in Leeds, and the third best in the Yorkshire and Humberside region . . . Behaviour is excellent, although the School would probably say that ‘relationships are excellent'”.

With the return to national progress comparatives in 2022, Mount St Mary’s topped both local and regional tables for P8. This success was replicated in 2023, and again in 2024, where we continue to buck the national trends.

All students seek to access extracurricular activities beyond the school day, be that of a sporting nature, academic, performing arts or public speaking. This is an area we value highly and continue to see growth in.

Required for Easter 2025 or earlier if possible

This may be the perfect role for you, you will join a school with a fantastic pedigree for pastoral care and personal development and work as part of a high performing and achieving, team of professionals.

Ofsted commented that the school had excellent capacity to continue improving. Blenheim converted to Academy Status in March 2012 and has developed many community and primary school links. Blenheim is a well–resourced school and is fortunate to have outstanding facilities. Together with a very supportive and well qualified governing body the school has invested significantly in several areas, not least in the appointment of high-quality practitioners and on-site infrastructure. Visitors often comment on the calm, purposeful learning environment that pervades. Blenheim sets high standards in terms of uniform with several ‘non-negotiables’ and there are strict expectations regarding behaviour and conduct, both in and out of the classroom. Ofsted described Blenheim as ‘calm, orderly and purposeful’ and our students as ‘respectful, kind and courteous’, which is what those of us who work at Blenheim see every day. As Blenheim students prepare to take up their place in society they are actively encouraged to become independent learners. Part of this process involves the integration of iPads across the curriculum; all teachers and 98% of students own one. Technological evolution is inevitable and this approach is key to ensuring that students develop attributes that will allow them to adapt in a rapidly changing world. The iPad complements daily teaching and allows students to easily access a multitude of interactive and innovative resources both in and away fromschool.
