Job overview

South Pennine Academies are seeking an outstanding person for the post of Principal to lead Moor End Academy in Huddersfield. The successful candidate will believe passionately that all children, regardless of background can make strong academic and personal progress, and succeed. 

Moor End is our flagship school, an academy converter who converted to an academy as an 'outstanding school' in August 2011. Before this the academy was a technology college for over ten years, and this grounding in technology still forms a strong part of curriculum and student experience.

Moor End’s school improvement journey is always determining new destinations and looking for new horizons. Our students are amazing; they have a thirst for learning, have fantastic relationships with staff and therefore attendance at school is high. 

Jane Acklam OBE, the CEO of our Trust will lead strategically with you in this role, and we are looking for a leader with special qualities, who will benefit from this strong partnership. 

The Governors, and South Pennine Academies ensure that Moor End provides the very best educational success for our children. We will create a dynamic relationship between Governors, South Pennine Academies and the CEO which will be both challenging and supportive as we work together to continue Moor End Academy’s outstanding journey.

If you think you would be the right person for the role then we would love to hear from you!

Moor End is a converter Academy that opened on 17th August 2011. We converted as an outstanding school. Prior to this we were a community school. Moor End is a National Support school.  We play a leading role in the training and professional development of teachers and contribute towards the raising of standards across the school system through school to school support.

We are an award winning Academy and have continued to be recognised by Ofsted as ‘outstanding’.  We are a truly inclusive school that welcomes students of all abilities. Our aim is to create a safe, stimulating, ambitious and caring environment to enable our students to thrive and achieve excellence; to make certain our future generation have the self-confidence to use their talents and skills to become the leaders of tomorrow.

Our vision is to maximise every child’s potential to ensure we can confidently say,” we gave every student his or her GCSE passport to success.” We passionately believe, as educators, we have the power and responsibility to inspire our students to be the best they can be to enable our learners to pursue their dreams and become the leaders of tomorrow.

Our motivation is to ensure that positive relationships are at the core of what we do every day, along with high quality teaching and pastoral care overseen by strong leadership. What we believe will follow is a strong ethos, and students with high expectations who demonstrate exceptional behaviour and want to be part of our school community.

We insist on high standards of behaviour, appearance, work ethic and respect for all to enable our staff to teach our students well so they learn to the best of their ability and leave the Academy with a first-class education.

Central to our ethos is the promotion of our ‘every day’ 3 Core Values: Respect, Ambition and Responsibility, which underpin everything we do on a daily basis.

1.  Respect

We are well behaved and considerate to all staff and students in our learning community.

2.  Ambition

We are hardworking and have an ambitious attitude to succeed and achieve.

3.  Responsibility

We take ownership and act with integrity; we always do the right thing.

We want to expand our family of committed and skilled people, who will directly benefit the future of the next generation. If you wish to discuss any of the opportunities we have on offer, please contact us at jharrison@edu.moorend.org or call 01484 222230.

We look forward to hearing from you.
