Dear prospective applicant,
Thank you for expressing an interest in this key vacancy at our college. The College has been serving the community since 1950 and continues to be a ‘Good’ school after last being inspected in May 2019. The inspectorate also agreed with our self-evaluation that leadership and management was outstanding.
Our mission is simple, we want every student to be the best that they can be, thrive in the best possible career and contribute positively to society.
We are looking for someone that is able to have the patience and perseverance to work with our most vulnerable of students. This successful candidate will be attached to a Year 7 student with an EHCP but may well be used to support other areas of the SEND faculty. As the funding follows the child, this post will terminate once the child leaves us, which we anticipate will be in Year 11. However, there are always opportunities for more permanent arrangements as staff grow and move on to further their careers.
You will see from our site that our three key values permeate all that we do and have allowed us to grow from strength to strength:
Aspiration - Be the best you can be
Commitment - Do what it takes for as long as it takes
Success - Be ready to take on the world
We are very clear that the gender, background, colour, poverty, wealth or social status of a child should have no bearing on how well they perform and staff here work extremely hard in trying to close that gap between the different groups of students.
If you have high aspirations for children from deprived backgrounds and experience of delivering educational excellence by providing a high quality education for the most vulnerable of students as well the business acumen to know how external services contribute to making this happen, we would like to hear from you.
If you are interested in the post and like to visit the college, please contact my PA Jo Amey by email jamey@crownhills.leicester.sch.uk to confirm your attendance:
Yours sincerely,
Mr F Adam (Principal)

Our aim has always been to make Crown Hills Community College one of the best schools to attend as a child and to work in as a member of staff.
The last few years have been amazing for our college community, as we have started to gain external recognition for the way we are doing things; from being shortlisted twice for the TES well-being school of the year in 2022 and 2023, to being one of five schools to win the Silver Award for the Pearson's secondary school of the year.
Every decision that we take is done with a lot of thought and consideration and we put well-being at the centre, so that teachers can teach and students can learn.
Therefore, we are not a college that is driven by OFSTED and whether we are GOOD or OUTSTANDING but we do things because they are at the very essence of helping our children and school community to be the best that they can be.
We have nearly 200 staff and 1500 students. Our mission is simple, we want every student to be the best that they can be, thrive in the best possible career and contribute positively to society.
We are very clear that the gender, background, colour, financial or social status of a child should have no bearing on how well they perform and staff here work extremely hard in trying to close that gap between the different groups of pupils.
We are well oversubscribed, even though we have increased our PAN from 240 to 300 pupils, we have more applicants than we have spaces. Our P8 score has also increased year on year and we have fluctuated between the top 12% and 20% of schools nationally. We are particularly proud that our PP pupils achieved a score of +0.17 in 2023.
