Job overview

We currently have exciting opportunities for highly committed Site Managers to work across schools within our Trust. The Site Manager responsible for MEA Central will also be responsible for Grange School.

  

About Prospere Learning Trust 

Prospere Learning Trust was formed in September 2017 through the merger of two multi academy trusts. We currently employ approximately 1000 staff and we believe that our staff play a vital role in achieving our vision. Great schools thrive because of the great people in them.

The Trust currently comprises of 8 schools, including 4 mainstream high schools and 4 special needs schools (both primary and secondary) with further schools anticipated cross Greater Manchester. With ambitious plans for growth and supporting academies to become the best they can be, every child is provided with the opportunity to develop the skills to be confident and successful. 

 

A core principle at Prospere Learning Trust is Respectful Relationships where acting with care, integrity, and fairness is demonstrated within all our schools.

 

We value each member of our professional community and value our health and wellbeing. Our Staff Charter sets a standard which we all seek to follow and an environment: 

• based on trust and shared values 

• respect and positive relationships 

• where staff health, safety and wellbeing are incorporated into day to day practices 

• where personal and professional development is encouraged 

• where support is available when needed 

Find out more about our Trust on our main TES page or by downloading the brochure below. 


The Site Manager will take responsibility for the school sites, associated building and facilities ensuring full compliance with the Trust's Estate Strategy and guidance.


The right candidate will believe that high quality education is an entitlement of all young people, and will understand that the Site Manager role is key to delivering this. This role will suit a highly organised individual who is experienced in managing a team and managing external contractors to maintain and improve our beautiful school premises. This role includes a high degree of responsibility for ensuring our premises are safe and secure. With responsibility for multiple sites, the successful candidate will have exceptional communication and planning skills. This role requires the post holder to commute between schools and therefore a full clean driving licence and own transport is essential.

 

Working for us: 

Great schools thrive because of the great people in them. 

Prospere Learning Trust offers a variety of employee benefits, including; 

• a commitment to continuous professional development for all colleagues 

• membership to Bupa Level 1 Health Plan which allows employees to claim money back for a range of health expenses such as prescriptions and dental treatments 

• access to counselling, financial, legal and personal advice provided through either our

free Bupa or Health Assured Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) including confidential 24 hour support 

• Cyclescheme access 

• Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) contributions and Teacher Pension Scheme (TPS) contributions

• access to claim mileage


This is an open rolling vacancy. Interview Dates will be determined as and when suitable candidates are identified. 

 

Applying to work for us 

Applications will only be accepted on the TES application form and references will be applied for at the shortlisting stage. Applications may not be considered if they are incomplete. We cannot accept CV's. We encourage early applications and reserve the right to close this vacancy before the closing date if we receive a high volume of applicants.  

 

Please note that new guidance in Keeping Children Safe in Education 2022 requires us to carry out an online search as part of our due diligence on shortlisted candidates. This to enable us to identify any incidents or issues which have happened and are publicly available online which we might want to explore at interview. Once shortlisting has taken place, this search will be carried out for all candidates who will attend an interview. 

 

All applicants must be permitted to work in the UK and hold a relevant work permit where necessary. This is not a role in which the Trust sponsors a visa application. If you have lived or worked outside of the UK in the last 5 years, the Trust will also require additional information in order to comply with safer recruitment requirements. Any job offer will be conditional on the satisfactory completion of the necessary pre-employment checks and receipt of satisfactory references. 

  

Safeguarding Children 

All schools within the Trust are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We will ensure that all our recruitment and selection practices reflect this commitment.

At Prospere Learning Trust we are committed to creating a community of belonging. This means we continually celebrate the diverse communities within our schools and the communities we serve. As an equal opportunity employer, we positively welcome applications from all candidates regardless of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex and sexual orientation.

MEA Central is a thriving 11-16 mixed secondary serving South Manchester, defined by our mission, ‘A fantastic future for all.' We work tirelessly to remove any barriers that might prevent our young people from achieving their potential and living successful, happy lives.  Our culture combines high expectations, warmth and encouragement with a focus on excellent academic outcomes to create informed citizens who will go out into the world and do what is right. Our values of Citizenship, Achievement and Participation and our belief in the power of language and the importance of the spoken word will develop confident young adults with a strong sense of social responsibility.

We deliver a challenging, knowledge-rich curriculum to prepare students not only for the GCSE assessment regime but also further education and life beyond.  We expect our students to meet our high expectations in terms of commitment and work ethic, but we also seek to ignite their intellectual passions and curiosities so that they become autonomous, fulfilled learners during their time with us.

There is so much more to MEA Central than what happens inside our classrooms, however! Our scholars benefit from a level of pastoral care and attention second to none, and our co-curriculum, which includes our extensive extra-curricular programme, ensures every child can gain valuable cultural capital and experience success in areas such as sport, music, drama and community activities.

We are making a difference. In 2022, we were:

  • Top 7% of schools in the country for progress
  • Top 2% of schools in the country for progress of disadvantaged students
  • Only three school in the country have a smaller gap between disadvantaged and non-disadvantaged students.

MEA Central was graded as 'Good' by Ofsted following the 2022 inspection.

"Pupils at Manchester Enterprise Academy Central are incredibly proud and happy to be a part of a diverse and respectful community. Everyone can be themselves. Pupils are considerate of one another. They do their best to model the school's core values. They strive to work hard, be kind and take part" Ofsted 2022.

You are welcome you to get in touch if there is anything more you would like to know about us. We look forward to seeing you here soon!
