Thank you for your interest in our school. We encourage you to read further, to take a careful look at the information about our vacancies and to learn about us as an academy and a trust.
Co-op Academy Grange is an inspiring place to work and learn. Working closely with the trust, our vision is to build and sustain the cultural, educational and social capital for each of our students. We combine this with an inclusive ethos and the acquisition of powerful knowledge that broadens students' experience and opportunity. We aim to secure excellence in all aspects of our work.
We’re a larger than average inner-city academy in Bradford, within the Little Horton ward (BD5). We are a part of a vibrant and diverse community, with 13 of the possible 17 ethnic groups represented in school. We celebrate our pupils’ talents, including the high number of pupils who are multilingual. Pupils with SEND are well supported, including through our resourced provision. Our building is shared with a special school, Co-op Academy Southfield, and this brings with it lots of opportunities to collaborate. We’re a highly inclusive school where the Co-op Values are the foundation of all we do. We are fully committed to improving the life chances of our pupils and welcome applications from others who wish to join us in this important work.

- Ofsted, Jan 2019“leaders and staff work extremely hard to create an inclusive and supportive learning environment for all pupils. They have created a culture which recognises each pupil as an individual, as well as continuing to develop an understanding of the community the school serves. The curriculum and pastoral support pupils receive, prepares them well for life in modern Britain.”
