The Gatwick School

Opened in 2014, and judged 'Good' by Ofsted in all areas.  The Gatwick School is a state-funded all-through school based in Crawley, West Sussex. Teaching children aged 4-16, the school is non-denominational and mixed gender. Located on Gatwick Road, it is less than a mile from the international airport of the same name.

The school can be accessed on public transport by the Metrobus network, with the Gatwick Road North bus stop situated outside the school. The Gatwick School has a breakfast club and runs OASIS clubs at the end of the day for after-school intellectual stimulation.

Values and vision

Our vision is for all pupils to have a love of learning, a positive and resilient approach with a strong sense of community. Each individual pupil will be encouraged to be aspirational, prepared for their future and inspired to make a difference. We strive for this through providing high-quality teaching which focuses on learning and furthering understanding. This is reflected in our values:

• Character - Being our personal best, being kind and developing resilience
• Culture - A diverse and cohesive community, with high expectations and celebration
• Currency - Outcomes to open doors of opportunity, providing experiences and building a positive reputation

By providing a learning experience with an emphasis on global education, business and enterprise, science and technology, The Gatwick School aims to raise aspirations and broaden horizons. Our pupils will be well prepared for the next stage of their journey whether it involves following an apprenticeship at some of the major employers right on our doorstep or onto further education.

We are looking for staff with high expectations of themselves, colleagues and pupils with the energy and determination to make a difference. So if you are someone who motivates and inspires confidence; a clear communicator who is collaborative and builds strong relationships. Then, you’ve come to the right place. Apply now! We look forward to meeting you.
