Co-op Academy Belle Vue opened in September 2021 as the newest secondary school in the Co-op Academies Trust, and is built upon the shared values and ‘ways of being’ that underpin all Co-op Academies ; Be yourself, always - Do what matters most - Show you care - and Succeed together.
Co-op Academy Belle Vue offers something a little different from other schools, whether that be the structure of the day, our investment in technology, or our diverse and exciting ‘electives programme’.
When we opened our doors to our first cohort of staff and students, we welcomed a new generation of Co-op pioneers, and together we have built something really special. Although the academy started its life in brand new, custom-built accommodation on the site of Co-op Connell College, we have now moved into our new state of the art academy building on Hyde Road.
Our new building represents not just bricks and mortar, but an investment in the future of our students and community. We are excited to offer our students access to the latest resources and technology, and to provide them with an inspiring and dynamic learning environment. As we join our new community we will continue to empower our students to think creatively, to collaborate, and to achieve their full potential. We will strive to foster a culture of excellence and inclusivity, where every student feels safe, valued and supported
Cooperation, community, ambition, achievement, respect, responsibility, endeavour, and enjoyment are all key elements in the role of leading personal development at Co-op Academy Belle Vue. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work closely with the Academy's sponsor, The Co-op Group, and to be part of a supportive network of talented colleagues within the Co-op Academies Trust.
At Co-op Academy Belle Vue, we are committed to creating something special, a culture of high expectations with the ways of being and our CARE principles at the heart of everything we do. Our goal is to provide an exceptional educational experience for our students and to foster a community where everyone feels valued and supported. To achieve this, we are looking for an expert in this field, someone who will lead and model excellence consistently.
This role offers a chance to work in a supportive and dynamic school environment, where you can make a real difference to the lives of our students. Co-op Academy Belle Vue is committed to providing an outstanding education and supportive environment for all students, and the Child Protection Officer will be a key member of the team working towards this goal.
If you are a proactive and organised individual with a passion for improving student attendance, then this could be the perfect opportunity for you.
As part of the Co-op Academies Trust, we value cooperation, community, ambition, achievement, responsibility, respect, and enjoyment in all our endeavours. The successful candidate will have recent experience and evidence of substantial impact on the improvement of a school or academy in areas relevant to this role.
