Why would you join Kenilworth School & Sixth Form?
We have just moved into a brand new purpose build site with state of the art facilities, the school was recently ranked as the fourth best comprehensive school in the West Midlands in the Times Best Schools 2024, our Ofsted inspection in November 2023, accredited the school with an Outstanding grading in every category, stating, 'the school is a centre of excellence' and our Progress 8 score for 2023 puts us in the highest category. This underpins the commitment and values that our staff strive hard to achieve and exceed for our students.
However, above all of this is the sense of pride the whole community has for the school, and the focus upon staff and student well-being. This is reflected in the far reaching enthusiasm of our students to support local and national charities and rise to challenges at sporting and academic events around the country.
As a staff member you would benefit from our employee assistance programme- physiotherapy, 24/7 GP and mental health support, retail and gym discounts, free flu vaccination, free on-site gym, a laptop, free electric car charging.
This is not an exhaustive list, but just a few reasons to be a proud member of this school and community.
