HEAD OF YEAR – TLR 2C

FULL TIME, PERMANENT POST FROM 1 SEPTEMBER 2022

Marden High School is a thriving centre of learning with each year group oversubscribed.  Our current School Development Plan indicates a vision which demands the very best for our learning community and the young people who are educated here: “This is a vibrant, exciting place to be. We are a strong community, each individual full of hope, looking forward to many possibilities. We are recognised for our innovative, high quality education and excellent examination results. We believe in our young people and inspire them to achieve more than they ever thought possible, both in and outside the classroom.” We share an expectation that this vision pervades all of our work, and the development of relationships with parents is an essential factor in establishing and enhancing a sense of engagement and belonging within the school community.

We have spent significant time developing the vision for the next stage of our school development. Staff, students, parents and governors are clear on who we are as a community, what makes us special, and how we wish to develop into the future.  We are interested in the concept of life-long learning, and supporting both students and staff in developing their sense of curiosity in the world around us. We have also spoken about the importance of instilling a sense of agency in our children, so that they understand that they as individuals and as a community can make a difference to their own and others’ lives through the decisions they make.

In order to further accelerate outcomes and continue to grow our talented staff team, we are currently seeking to appoint an outstanding Head of Year to join our successful team.  You will already be an outstanding teacher capable of delivering inspirational lessons and able to ensure that students are appropriately challenged, supported and achieve their expected levels of progress or better.

Our Heads of Year are responsible for developing, leading and managing highly effective tutor teams to ensure that all students make excellent academic progress and achieve fulfilling personal development.

This is a wonderful opportunity for a talented and ambitious professional to make a sustained and substantial contribution to the growth and development of Marden High School, and we welcome applications from outstanding teachers who are looking to further develop their career.
