We are a successful, inclusive school where our students are our greatest asset. We have high standards and expectations which are matched equally with our high aspirations for all members of our school community and we work hard to provide support and investment to enable these to be achieved.

Our work is underpinned by our five key values: Endeavour, Resilience, Inspiration, Collaboration and Compassion. Our values are aimed at developing young people to be the very best they can be and to equip them with the skills, knowledge and attributes to be confident, rounded and successful members of society.
Our school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be subject to a Disclosure Barring Service Check.
We promote diversity and want a workforce, which reflects the population of Leeds.
