Results have been excellent across the school over several years. Our whole school GCSE results have shown a 17% improvement against national GCSE outcomes between 2014 and 2016 and Progress 8 measures have been positive for the last two years. A-level results are equally strong and about ninety of our students progress on to study at higher education level each year, ranging from local universities to Oxbridge and institutions of higher education overseas. The school was deemed to be ‘Good’ during its last Ofsted visit in spring 2013.
Resources across the school are excellent, with several recently refurbished teaching block and extended and refurbished library and dining area. The school has recently begun to work with local primary partner schools to investigate the possibility of forming a Multi-Academy Trust.

Wollaston School is committed to safeguarding and protecting the welfare of children and young people, and we expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
You will be part of a small team responsible for the security, health and safety, and cleanliness of the school, so would need to have demonstrable experience in these areas. This is a “hands on” role, therefore you must have excellent DIY skills (a trade background would be a distinct advantage). You should also be able to work on your own initiative and have sound customer service skills.
