students achieve their true potential.

positive contribution to our pastoral team, enhancing the learning of our students?

 Can you form positive relationships to help our children achieve their best, academically and 

personally?

children?

 Do you have a passion for inspiring and making a difference to the lives of children who live in the 

inner city?

At St George’s we are passionate about raising standards in the core subjects alongside developing and 

promoting lifelong employment skills through a creative, dynamic and engaging curriculum.

We are able to offer opportunities for staff training and development, supportive parents and Governing
