"Leaders’ ambitions and high expectations of pupils, teachers and parents cascade throughout the community."

(Ofsted, December 2022)

Shirley High School is a proud multicultural school with an established reputation of integrity and excellence. As a school, we continue to make significant progress across all areas of our school. This progress includes improved academic results, an increase in the number of pupils joining our school and more pupils leaving us to attend university. This includes Russell Group and Oxbridge universities. During the last 4 years we have invested over £1 million in school facilities, improvements and resources and moved from an Ofsted grading of ‘Requires Improvement’ to ‘GOOD’ in all categories.

Our school is at the heart of a vibrant and diverse community, with our pupils benefiting from our fabulous site and leafy surroundings. This along with our clear values and ethos, helps to create a positive learning environment for both pupils and staff. We also benefit from excellent transport links to London and the surrounding areas, plus an onsite gym and ample free parking.

We have high expectations in all we do and believe that all our pupils can be the best in the world at whatever they decide to pursue, through hard work, determination, leadership and compassion. We strive for excellence throughout our broad curriculum and wide range of extra-curricular opportunities, whilst also ensuring that both pupils and staff are developed both in and out of the classroom. 

As a school, we are totally committed to ensuring that all students can access, engage and more importantly enjoy Drama. We understand the importance of Drama in allowing students to progress in their educational journey and provide the resources for our departments to achieve these aims. We have redesigned our curriculum and want talented teachers to join us on this exciting journey as we pursue local and national success. 

We are looking for a dynamic and efficient member of staff to join our administration team and provide an effective and efficient administrative support service to the school with responsibility for first-aid, reprographics and marketing.

We are looking for someone who:

• Reliable and conscientious pastoral leader with high expectations in line with the school;
• Demonstrate great communication skills with all within the school community;
• Neat appearance in line with the school policy;
• Ability to work as part of a successful team and work effectively under pressure;
• Have the determination and resilience to ensure that all students are challenged in all aspects of school life.

We offer excellent working conditions with key benefits that include:

• Cycle to Work scheme;
• Significant departmental investment;
• Staff Mentoring;
• Staff car park on-site;
• Fitness Suite (newly refurbished);
• A strong focus on the professional development of all staff within our school;
• A dedicated staff wellbeing programme.

We would be delighted to hear from you if you believe you have the skills to perform this role to the highest possible standards and are truly passionate about joining us on our journey. Please contact us if you wish to arrange a tour of the school or speak with the Principal.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. More information can be downloaded from our website www.shirley.croydon.sch.uk.
