Job overview

It’s a new era for Manor High School. And for your career.

With a new Head with bold aspirations, Manor High is starting a new chapter. We are already successful; we are among the top 1% of schools nationally for progress and the highest in the whole of Leicestershire. With comprehensive support from OAK Multi Academy Trust, we strive to be even better. You will play a big part in us achieving this through your inspiring personality and individual vision. Together, we can write success stories for every student – whatever their aptitude or background.

Collaborating closely with your senior colleagues, you will bring our values to life as you help us deliver education that’s about far more than just exam results. Like us, you’ll be passionate about the possibilities of technology, including a one-to-one iPad scheme that will ensure everyone stays connected to the wider world. This is one of a number of exciting initiatives we are putting in place, including the development of state-of-the-art sports facilities that will empower our students to exercise their bodies as well as their minds.

Whether you are a specialist in teaching and learning or particularly passionate about pastoral care, you should already be a seasoned school leader with a proven record of success. We will look to you to build on our culture of high performance and take our school to the next level, so we need a champion of continuous improvement who can make things happen every day. Above all, you will relish the challenge of changing lives, breaking new ground and tackling conventional wisdom.

If you are that person, we can help make you the leader you’ve always wanted to be through heavy investment in your personal and professional development. You can also expect a comprehensive package of benefits, including:

  • Pension scheme
  • Free onsite parking
  • Health cash plan
  • Eye test vouchers
  • Lifestyle savings
  • Home and electronics scheme – which involves spreading the cost of technology and home appliance purchases
  • Cycle to Work scheme – savings are realised through a salary sacrifice arrangement
  • Gym membership scheme
  • Free physiotherapy treatment
  • Free counselling & wellbeing support
  • Menopause support
  • GP phone & video consultation – accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week

Values and vision

We are a friendly, hard-working and highly aspirational 11 to 16 school with around 900 students. The school is recognised for and celebrates its distinctive character and ethos.

We are highly ambitious for all of our children who share our love of learning. Our lessons are enjoyable, challenging, fast-paced and fun. We provide a focused and personalised learning environment which enables every individual to thrive and succeed. We know our parents, our children and their community well and they know us. This is part of what makes Manor High standout and is often referred to as the ‘Magic of Manor’.

There are many opportunities for enrichment that run throughout the year to enhance the learning experience. Visit us on Facebook and Twitter, explore our website and read our latest newsletter to find out more.

Through its system of vertical tutoring, the school is able to settle pupils quickly. Older students develop leadership skills as they support the learning and self-esteem of newer, younger children. Manor High School is proud of its diversity, which brings with it a cultural richness that benefits every member of the school community.
