A rare and remarkable opportunity that will change your career.

Working as part of The GORSE Academies Trust, Elliott Hudson College will ensure that students receive an outstanding education that focuses on high expectations, challenge and rigour. Together these non-negotiable values will instil in young people a self-belief that enables them to access the highest standard of higher educational provision and employment.

Through this approach Elliott Hudson College will be a catalyst for social change, transforming opportunities for the young people in the communities it serves. We are determined through the establishment of this college, to ensure that poverty and deprivation should in no way limit either the quality of a young person’s educational experience or the levels of achievement to which those students are able to rise.

This is an exciting opportunity for candidates who is keen to be at the centre of our organisational change. The last few years have been exceptional for The GORSE Academies Trust and we are incredibly proud that Elliott Hudson College has been judged as ‘outstanding’ in all areas, by Ofsted in March 2018.
