This is a fantastic opportunity for a dynamic and innovative sportsperson to join a thriving and ambitious Academy. A Bolder future awaits…

We are looking for a Director of Sport and Community who is focused, inspirational and committed to doing the very best for all our students and our local community. At Bolder we are passionate about our students having the very best opportunities academically and beyond!

We are seeking an experienced leader to implement a varied programme of competitive sport and broader enrichment activities across the whole of the Academy. We are also looking for someone with entrepreneurial skills who can maximise community access to our state of the art facilities including income generation opportunities.

Sitting at the heart of our community, we are an energetic, proud and successful school. We place great importance on high quality relationships, teamwork and a ‘can do attitude’. The successful candidate will have drive and va va voom plus and a willingness to roll your sleeves up and get on with the job in hand.

As well as a high quality sports field, we have a dance studio, sports hall with climbing wall and multigames use area.

Bolder Academy opened in September 2018 and now have Year 7s, Year 8s and Year 9s within the Academy. We are a mixed, non-denominational school.

The Academy has been set up by primary and secondary Headteachers from the London Borough of Hounslow to meet the demand for extra school places. We are already part of the community.

Extraordinary partnerships have been formed with key local businesses such as Sky resulting in a ‘bold’ education: a traditional, highly academic curriculum combined with brilliant extra-curricular opportunities.

Starting with year 7, we know every Bolder student and their family exceptionally well, strong relationships and great communication is the Bolder way.

The opportunities to be part of the Academy’s history and to develop a school that truly stands apart are significant: shaping the curriculum, sparking enthusiasm and excitement for learning. A perfect career move!

Bolder Academy offers our students and our staff to shine brighter, to be bolder.
