Due to the forthcoming retirement of our current Headteacher, the Governors are seeking to appoint an inspirational leader who will build on our current strengths and help take the school forward. To preserve our ethos, we require that this post be filled by a practising Christian in sympathy with the aims of a Church of England School.
This is an exciting time to join St Hilda’s. In September 2015, the school moved into a brand new £15 million building and became co-educational in year 7.
The successful applicant must be a proven leader and be able to:
Build on the school’s present strengths as a Good school to secure an Outstanding rating from Ofsted
Inspire, demonstrate and support highest expectations for all
Demonstrate commitment to include and make a difference for every student
Deliver first class educational outcomes for all students
St. Hilda’s, which is situated on the edge of Sefton Park in South Liverpool, is a welcoming and supportive community. We have high expectations of behaviour and there are excellent relationships between staff and pupils based on mutual respect. St Hilda’s is a high-performing, over-subscribed comprehensive school with a Sixth Form. It has a record of success at GCSE and A level: in 2015, 72% of pupils gained at least 5 A*-C GCSE grades including English and Maths. In 2015, Ofsted judged the school to be Good with Outstanding behaviour and in 2012 SIAMS (church schools’ inspection) rated the school Oustanding.
Informal visits to the school are welcome. Please contact Mrs Lynne Noon, Finance and Administration Manager by email: lnoon@st-hildas.co.uk or telephone: 0151 733 2709 to make an appointment.
Please apply via the school’s Hirewire recruitment site: https://www.hirewire.co.uk/job/65658/
Closing date: 8th January 2016 Interviews to take place: 19th and 20th January 2016
The Governors of St Hilda’s CE High School are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service.
