Job overview

Dear prospective applicant,

Thank you for taking the time to read about this role and our school. CHCC is in the top 12% of schools nationally and blends a 70-year history of inclusive education with an innovative, forward-looking approach to providing a state education like no other to 1500 students from inner city backgrounds.

The School now seeks to appoint an exceptional individual to work in the classroom and cover colleagues for in-service training, meetings and absence, alongside 4 other colleagues in the department. This role will suit professionals with experience of leading groups of children in an educational setting. This role has been aligned to the Single Status JD for Sports/Activity Coach/Instructor L2). We welcome applications from those with an educational background across the private and public sector on a part-time basis.

This is a fantastic career opportunity for a highly motivated professional to join a college that is looking to do things everything else will take care of itself. I would therefore, urge you to visit us and to look at our website and the video about what it is that we stand for and why you would want to join us.

I want us to be at the forefront of educational excellence because we want to provide the best educational experience resources. However, I sincerely believe that if we lead this community by staying true to our values then it is possible. decided that ASPIRATION, COMMITMENT and SUCCESS are the three key drivers that will support the development of our pupils.

Crown Hills is a founding school within the “WelI Schools” movement and I sit on the board as well as being an advocate Head teacher for the YST. My approach and therefore our approach to leadership at CHCC is summarised in my podcast with the Youth Sport Trust. 

We believe that the curriculum is king and that the way it is sequenced, will help our students to make progress. We have teaching. In order to be successful you need to buy into this pedagogy and practice as it underpins our philosophy and the curriculum, it is important you understand and align to our college principles.

We are very clear that the gender, background, colour, poverty, wealth or social status of a child should have no bearing on pupils.

Please read the attached job description and person specification. If you are interested in applying, please fill in the application form available on our website, please include e-mail addresses of all referees, together with a letter of application (no more than 2 sides of A4, font 12) outlining your skills, qualifications and experience relevant to this post by 9am on Wednesday 5th June.

Our aim has always been to make Crown Hills Community College one of the best schools to attend as a child and to work in as a member of staff.

The last few years have been amazing for our college community, as we have started to gain external recognition for the way we are doing things; from being shortlisted twice for the TES well-being school of the year in 2022 and 2023, to being one of five schools to win the Silver Award for the Pearson's secondary school of the year.

Every decision that we take is done with a lot of thought and consideration and we put well-being at the centre, so that teachers can teach and students can learn.

Therefore, we are not a college that is driven by OFSTED and whether we are GOOD or OUTSTANDING but we do things because they are at the very essence of helping our children and school community to be the best that they can be.

We have nearly 200 staff and 1500 students. Our mission is simple, we want every student to be the best that they can be, thrive in the best possible career and contribute positively to society.

We are very clear that the gender, background, colour, financial or social status of a child should have no bearing on how well they perform and staff here work extremely hard in trying to close that gap between the different groups of pupils.

We are well oversubscribed, even though we have increased our PAN from 240 to 300 pupils, we have more applicants than we have spaces. Our P8 score has also increased year on year and we have fluctuated between the top 12% and 20% of schools nationally. We are particularly proud that our PP pupils achieved a score of +0.17 in 2023.
