Dixons McMillan opened in September 2014 with just one Year 7 cohort. In September 2016 we moved into our new building and we have close to 600 scholars on site. We will reach our full capacity in September 2018 with 720 scholars on site from Year 7 to Year 13.
This is a great career opportunity to be part of a new and expanding school. It is a very special place to work. We have very high expectations of staff, but we value them highly.
We invest heavily in staff development and a growing school will offer many career opportunities in the coming years.
The post holder will be responsible for the administration of the sixth form scholars and be part of the scholar support team. Some tasks will include: administering the sixth form Bursary; overseeing the UCAS operations; supporting sixth from scholars pastorally; monitoring attendance and behavior; undertake administrative tasks by direction of the Senior Leadership Team.
Experience in a similar role is desirable with experience of all aspects of sixth form administration and working with sixth form scholars.
Above all, we are looking for someone who is fully committed to the vision and ethos of the Dixons group of academies; someone who can contribute fully to a can-do culture and a continuous drive for improvement; and someone who has at their heart the happiness, well-being, self-esteem and progress of everyone at the school.
The academy is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Successful applicants will need to undertake a DBS enhanced clearance for the academy.

A note from the Principal
As the Principal of Dixons McMillan Academy, my vision is that our school is a place where everyone feels welcome, and everyone succeeds. All of our students should receive opportunities that equip them to contribute positively to their community and the wider world, and our mission is to provide a stellar educational experience that promotes cultural capital and enrichment experiences – but at the same time, is underpinned with academic rigour and excellence. To achieve our goals, we uphold our three core values of resilience, integrity and courtesy and use our drivers of mastery, autonomy and purpose to propel us forwards.
At Dixons McMillan, staff and students live by our three core values every day. By resilience we mean that we work really, really hard and we never give up. We have a can-do attitude, and when we find things difficult we work together (as a team) to find a solution. When we refer to integrity, we mean that we are good people. We do the right thing, because it’s the right thing to do. We make decisions for the good of everyone. We are honest and have strong moral principles. And finally, when we talk about courtesy, we pride ourselves in welcoming anyone warmly to our school community – be it a visitor, a new student, or a staff member. We always have good manners and we are kind, thoughtful and polite.
Through demonstrating these three core values consistently, we ensure that students can learn and staff can teach – and ultimately, our focus on success is relentless.
