Bournside is the largest comprehensive 11-18 school in Gloucestershire. We are an established single academy trust with a good reputation (Ofsted ‘Good’ rating 2016), wide catchment, and a strong presence in the community. Our school is consistently oversubscribed with a PAN of 300, and most of our students choose to stay with us for their post-16 study.

Our school is forward thinking and creative, and as a key member of the school’s Senior Leadership Team (SLT) you, along with the Deputy Headteachers, will make a significant contribution to the future success of our wonderful school.
