Teacher of PE

About the School

Archbishop Blanch Church of England High School for girls in year 7-11, with a mixed sixth form, is at a very exciting stage in its development. Judged to be “Outstanding” in February 2020, behaviour is described as “impeccable”, while the school's core values were seen as critical to the success of students. Across the board, the curriculum is ambitious and students achieve excellent results in external examinations. The number on roll at Archbishop Blanch is increasing and the school is heavily oversubscribed. We have state of the art facilities, an impressive staff development programme and a highly motivated student body to offer to the successful candidate. As a faith based school, we have an “Outstanding” SIAMS report and have recently had an extremely positive Keeping in Touch visit this academic year.

The outstanding behaviour of our students, state of the art facilities and excellent pastoral care results in many visitors commenting on the strong sense of a real community atmosphere existing within the school. Staff morale is high, the atmosphere in the school is very positive and students’ work and behaviour in and around school reflects this. 

We have strong partnerships with many external organisations and agencies including other secondary and primary schools. We have a very strong and supportive Governing Body who take an active part in the life of the school and are fully involved in moving the school on in its journey of school improvement.
