At The John Warner School we are proud to belong to a school that has provided a first-rate education to young people in Hoddesdon since John Warner built a school for children of all classes and religious beliefs in 1841. We have worked tirelessly to build on this rich history to ignite a lifelong passion for learning, to discover and develop potential, allowing all to flourish in an ever-changing world.

That hasn’t, however, come without its challenges – and we are currently making important changes to ensure that we meet the high standards that we set ourselves.

It is in that context where there is now an exciting role opportunity to help make a real difference to the learning that our students receive. Together with an evolving leadership team, we are building a school where:

  • Students make exceptional progress;
  • Students access an exciting, challenging and relevant curriculum;
  • Students are supported by a caring, committed and capable pastoral system;
  • The well-being of all members of the school community is given priority;
  • We have truly great teaching, learning and assessment;
  • Staff enhance their practice through a personalised, relevant and ongoing training programme;
  • We enjoy an engaging, vibrant and pleasant learning environment;
  • We make meaningful connections with our local community
  • We have a popular, high-performing and well-resourced Sixth Form;
  • We use intelligent, responsible and focused leadership and management systems.

We are proud to belong to a school where we value:

  • Aspiration. We aim high in all we do, prepare to succeed in school and in life and aim to create memories and futures together.
  • Creativity. We believe that we are creative, love learning and thinking deeply and acknowledge the importance of education for education’s sake.
  • Participation. We learn from each other to make a positive impact on our school, family and world, broaden our skills beyond the classroom and promote community links through charitable works.
  • Respect. We create a mutually respectful atmosphere, we respect ourselves, others and our surroundings and we form positive relationships in an environment that is free from prejudice, bullying and harassment.
  • Endeavour. We believe hard work leads to success, strive to achieve our targets, goals and ambitions and develop resilience to thrive in an ever-changing world.

The school benefits from a superior environment for learning. In addition to our state-of-the-art sports centre, which is one of the largest attached to any school in the country, we have benefited from £18 million worth of development which means that students now benefit from having some of the best learning resources and accommodation in the country. This means that students who attend our school benefit from a superb indoor environment as well as a landscaped external environment that provides them with opportunities for relaxation, sport and socialising. Most recently the school has opened new centres for humanities, modern foreign languages, art, technology, mathematics, English as well as a new library. Together these facilities mean we are able to offer a modern and integrated campus to support the work of the staff and learning of the students.

The John Warner School is part of the Hoddesdon School Trust which is comprised of The John Warner School, The Cranbourne Primary School & Roselands Primary School. The Trust serves over 2,300 children and employs around 270 staff. We are committed to the continuing professional development for all staff. Benefits of working for the Trust include

  • Membership to The John Warner Sports Centre
  • Employee Asistance Programme
  • CPD opportunities
  • Membership of the Local Government Pension Scheme
  • Annual flu jabs
  • Cycle to Work Scheme
  • Free parking
